	Lynn, Are you getting your family lines mixed up? I think I see an Adams/Spence connection going on. Is this the Horatio you wanted?? 1911 census transcription details for: 5 Atkinson Place Atkinson St Hunslet National Archive Reference: RG14PN27137 RG78PN1551 RD501 SD1 ED20 SN132 Reg.

	Sorry Maureen, Am still a little confused as Lynn didn't mention a Spence on her thread...... is there another thread ?? Is this Levi any help? Regards Vera
Member Since: December 2004 Posts: 5,616 Send Message	MaureeninNY	Report	11 Jun 2010 17:15
	No other thread that I can see. I think Lynn just mixed up the surnames of her ggrands. I think that's the right Adams in 1911,son Levi (c !898)appears to be in a reformatory school. Hopefully Lynn will come back to us and straighten out any mess I've caused!! Maureen
