Ann, I've been given the 1911 census for Albert, Florence and Albert John who I didn't know about.

The sons that I was looking for was Richard Charles Abbiss and Ernest Abbiss. I don't think I'm going to find them so I've put that this thread is answered.

Many thanks
Maisy

I don't know what I'm talking about again! I do have all the children from this family on the census but I was hoping to find Richard, Ernest and Albert. I now have Albert the father and his new wife but the 2 sons are elsewhere and I don't think we are going to find them.

Thanks to everybody who has tried to find these for me, your time is really appreciated.

Yes Jan, I was getting my notes muddled but have corrected it above. It was his son Ernest who married Grace Dunton and he actually married Florence Graves.

I have the marriage certificate for Richard C Abbiss in front of me now. According to marriage cert. he was a corporal in the Royal Engineers and living in Streatham when he married in 1917.

Sorry for any confusion.

Jan, Albert was a coach builder b.1861 Maulden but he married Grace Dunton in 1908 and they had 3 children according to a family member.
The children were Irene who died very young, Charles and Hilda. Charles Albert was born in 1909.

Sorry, I'm getting confused now, I think I'm getting them muddled up and need to look at my notes. Will come back soon.

It wasn't Grace Dunton that he married, that was his son Ernest. Albert married Florence Graves in 1908. So it looks like Albert had another son, Albert according to 1911 census.

On that 1911 census Albert & Florence had been married 2 years. For number of children Albert had written "3 by former wife, ages 20, 14 and 12" but it had been crossed out.
