Frederick Hunt abt 1872 Somerset, England Boarder Leicester formerly St Margaret Leicestershire >> Henry Hunt abt 1868 Somerset, England Visitor Leicester formerly St Margaret Leicestershire James Packman abt 1861 Kent, England Boarder Leicester formerly St Margaret Leicestershire Ann F Porter abt 1877 Leicestershire, England Daughter Leicester formerly St Margaret Leicestershire Edith M C Porter abt 1878 Leicestershire, England Daughter Leicester formerly St Margaret Leicestershire Sarah Ann Porter abt 1847 Leicestershire, England Head Leicester formerly St Margaret Leicestershire If this is the one you are looking for, he is single, a jeweller - someone has added 'gold' later. His brother (I assume) also single, same occupation Sarh Porter is boarding house keeper.

Don't think that's him Christine. I've not come across Frederick before & there are other Henry/Frederick Hunt siblings with the same ages as you posted in previous census from other parts of Somerset. Thanks anyway for trying. Nikki

My Henry had a brother Ernest who has also disappeared after 1881 if that helps. Ernest was born in Bawdrip 1873. Thanks

Nikki could you post the 1891 you have please. Gold will be added to Jeweller later referring to above census because thats what section they put jewellers in when transcribing the census Zoe
