Sorry for the delay Terry, kids needed feeding and watering... all done now for a short while.

This looks like the birth for Ernest;

1911 census (this is a search only using his name)


HOUSEHOLD STEVENS ERNEST FREDERICK SYDNEY M 1897 14 Eastbourne Sussex

With him;

HOUSEHOLD STEVENS JOHN WILLIAM M 1891 20 Eastbourne Sussex






So maybe he went by the name Sydney???

As I have said before Dee, there are so many Steven's about, I think it could be a case of hit and miss. Tx

BatMansDaughter

BatMansDaughter Report 17 Mar 2010 16:16

It's so often the case Terry, I think we all wished we'd listened more when they we still with us........... hence why many of us document everything now, my poor kids will have oodles of paperwork!!!


If you wanted to take a gamble with the death for Annie, it maybe worth ordering the death certificate and see who registered the death, this is very often a close relative (son/daughter)........... you can order online at The General Register, prices go up next month from £7.00 to about £9.50, they normally take around 1 week to arrive.


I'll keep having a dig around, but my main concern is that Annie would have been 30 when the son was born..... so was either of them married previously and this left them unable to marry eachother????

You could very well be right on Annies death info. I am honestly ignorant as toany info of that nature, because we didnt seem to take a lot of notice in those days, and now all my older relatives have passed on, so unfortunately there is no-one left to ask.

Hi Terry,

misspelt surnames is quite a common error, even in this day and age, so I wouldn't be put off by that.

Is there nothing else you can tell us? An area of death? Or even Annies year of birth?

Terence Report 17 Mar 2010 15:04

Its quite possible Sidney J Stevens was a son although both surnames appear to be spelt differently. I am always amazed how you researchers come up with the info. Thank to you all.

Chances are the above child was Sidney John hence the nickname Jack.
