I have a Harry Mitchell born 1866 Altrincham Cheshire
Parents John Mitchell and Ann Greenall , I have Censuses from 1971 to 1911 which matches him being born 1866 yet the Baptism I have is 1874/5
1911 he is at * Show Rd Altincham with his sister Francis a Fish and Cheppere Potsole Business

I think I have followed the right Harry but I'm hoping the 1921 census will tell me if I have followed the right Harry and if he married

Thank you

It all seems to fit
I had Emma had married Joseph Pearson and they had a Daughter Beatrice and her marriage which I didn't think I had
I got the probate up for Harry and yes the address was the same

It seemed as though Greyghost had put Harry was baptised the same time as Harry unfortunatly I was hoping to see the entry for both but only Emma came up

I can close Harry now and feel satisfied I have the right one
