George Sidney Borrill

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Bruce Report 2 Nov 2012 19:51

George Sidney Borrill was born on 8.12.1882 at Preston. I have found him on the 1881 census, living with his parents. I have found him on the 1901 census living at 76 Lambert Street, Sculcoates Hull. I cannot find him on the 1911 census. He married Harriett may Scoffield in 1912 at Sculcoates, Hull.

Can anyone else find him in the 1911 census.

Glitterbaby

Yes that is the correct entry for the 1881 census.

It may be the one travelling from Canada, as on the 1901 census he is shown as a caprpenter and joiner. Does it show the name of a wife on that entry.

I had found the entry relating to the Georgewho had married Anne, but had ddiscounted it due to place of birth and the marriage in 1912

GlitterBaby

Got a problem

As I think the one you have found in 1901 is the one born Hull

Rambling

Rambling Report 2 Nov 2012 20:27

The George travelling from canada is a cabinet maker, so very likely
