No Nicky I have not even looked for the actual children from the first census as they woul all be of an age to have left home. However, I will have a look now.

Have looked at the 1911.... henry from 1901 is widowed by 1911, but still has children Doris and Frederick with him,and is still a plumber....so not much help there.

Sorry i have to go out now...maybe someone else could take a look for the children and death of 1st wife?...with a name like Jephcott i would be looking for various spellings....a very easy name to mis transcribe...

Have you found any of the 1st 3 children from 1891 on the 1901 census?

is there another Henry Jephcott born c1858 Coventry area?


The age and occupation are an indication that it may be the same person, but personally i would exhaust all other possibiilities before claiming him as "mine"

I will take alook at 1911 census to see what I can find for you.

I have Henry Jephcott b. 1858 Foleshill, Coventry on 1891 census with wife Mary J age 31 and children W.Leonard, Henry and George. Henry's occ is plumber and painter. They are living Spon St, Coventry. However, I have searched for him on 1901 census and the only one I can find is living Stratford Road, Birmingham with wife Clara A 37, Doris 4 and Fdk 2. Both Henry's age and occupation fit in with the previous census. The difficulty is I have yet to find a death for Mary J from the 1891 census or a marriage to a Clara from 1901 census. What do you think ? Thanks.
