Hi Linda, Thank you, I have managed to trace that side of the family but I appreciate you looking, as you can see there are a couple of mistakes on that page Wally should read Mary and Waller should read Walter, im wondering if this is why I cant find Henry!! But its is Henry and William im after, just proving to be a mystery and really dont know what way to go now, any tips please. Thanks Debbie

Hi Rosemary, Silly question time as im a 'newbie' at this.. how did you find William Elliott wheelwright? was it a) by looking on 1901govcensus and scrolling down or b) ancestry? I really appreciate you doing this im going to go one by one with them now to see if they can shed any light on this hunt for Henry as I know he was around for the 1901 census. Thanks again. Debbie

Fiona, Thank you but how do I do an address search? would it be by using 1901censusgov site? Debbie

Thanks Kieth, I appreciate it.. thought I was the one going mad for a moment as what I see on the gov census doesnt always match ancestry, do you think it could be a transcribers slip of the pen? Debbie

I believe Borough is Lambeth area so thought this may be worth looking at Amelia Elliott 21 Boro, London, England Daughter Spitalfields London Edward Elliott 44 Boro, London, England Head Spitalfields London Eliza Elliott 42 Boro, London, England Wife Spitalfields London Henry Elliott 5 Boro, London, England Son Spitalfields London ps looked at image for 1901 and yes it shows as 3 wives for once transcribers got it right even if compiler didn't

Thanks Ken, my grandads name was Henry and his fathers name William Edward, what would the chance be of him using his middle name and im assuming that would be allowed? your everso helpful. Thank you
