Having spent over 2 1/2 hours banging my head against a brick wall, off to apply a cold compress.

I don't really have a good 'gut feeling' with any of this - apart with the 1911 which you probably have anyway!

Has anyone previously come up with a 1901 census which shows the spouse of Mrs A M Clowes, cos I can't find one that fits, nor a marriage about 1884.

If we assume Herbert, the apparent eldest was named after his father, this could be a relevant death of Mrs Clowe's husband

Deaths Sep 1909 (>99%)
CLOWES Herbert 50 Wolstanton 6b 50

If anyone else fancies taking on the CLOWES challenge, inparticular in finding more living relatives, feel free!!!!
