Barbara Report 21 Oct 2012 17:40

Taking advantage of the free 1911 census I have tried to find my great grandparents Annie & Walter Furniss b. 1858 and 1856 I have tried various spellings as in the 1901 Census it was spelt wrong. It would appear that Walter had made anther life for himself in 1901. I cannot find their daughters Selina b. 1889 Dorothy b. 1891 or Gladys b. 1894.
I would appreciate any clues as to finding them.
