Hi Christine
For some reason he doesnt appear on census

he is down as 1st on list
alfred grist head 31 ( warehouseman ) born Gosport
RG 13 / 2
maybe they have mixed the households up but he is first then Richard Fear and his family then Rosina and Albert
hope this explains it

I will have a look at the original census and let you know what it says

Christine

Christine Report 30 Jul 2010 21:02

Polly am I being thick?
In the 1901 census it lists householder 9
Alfred Albert as son to the head of the household and Rosina householder 10 as wife to householder.
But also householder 6 as wife and other children as of head of household.

Thank you again Polly that took some looking up. I am sure you have pleased at least two members of the Grist family today.
And a big thank you to everyone else who took time to find out this information for me.
It has been a great help.

Maybe Jax,

Hard to know what was the right thing to do in those days,
they seemed to have stayed together for a fair few years though as my husband remembers it.
