I have been to Family Records Office today and still not found all I wanted to ! Could someone look up Louisa Rawlings b. 1879 Shorditch and husband Alfred Rawlings b. 1879 West Ham. I think in 1901 they may be in Bromley ?

Thank you.

Thank you , but Louisa should be 22, I think and not 32 ???

Heather

Heather Report 4 Oct 2007 23:06

I think thats just a case of the clerk striking through her age and it cant be read properly on the census image. It certainly looks like 22 to me. Though Alfreds does look like 25.

Yes could be there is a x near /over the age

That sounds good thank you all very much.

Heather Report 4 Oct 2007 23:09

Does the address match to a childs birth cert? There are a few Alfreds still living with parents who match fairly well. But was he married to her by the 1901? In which case this is the only match.

I am not looking for their children. Louisa is my Gt grandfather's sister. I am actualy looking for George Mayson (brother of both) and born in 1888. Thier father George Mayson b.1853 has dissapeared between 1891 and 1901. Their mother ( as Glitter Babe found for me) was in a lunaytic asylum in 1901.

I guess I was hoping to find George, who would be about 13 in 1901 with one of his siblings.

Apologies for terrible spelling !!

I remember looking for George 1888 in 1901 but had no luck.

Could not find a birth for him either.

Good luck with the search.

Thank you Maureen, I guess I will have to leave him for now.

On another note, you found J M Mayson for me in 1901 census in London County Lunatic asylum. I have contacted local autority, who have records for the asylum and they are looking into it for me. Hopefully this will give me an insight as to why she was there.

Thanks again

Diane, Thanks for that I have had the problem of the way Ma(y)son was spelt throughout the generations. In late 1700's was spelt MASON amd then on MAYSON. Ny great grandfather was born MAYSON and died MASON. My main concern was where was this person in 1901 !!!!

Thanks again
