Alfred Turland took his mothers maiden name then? I am going to assume there is no chance of tracking his currently nameless father?

Reg - That makes sense, that you.

Ozibird - I will say one thing, it's a very addictive hobby! Like I said above, three different spellings of one first name. Had me stumped to start with.

Shirley - Yes you are correct it is a second marriage. Frances Jellis the only offspriing of this second marriage is my G Gran.

Claire - Thanks You I will go read it.

Thanks all.

from the age difference and the son and daughter being 21 and 19 .would safely say this must be second marriage for Walter & Frances l jellis in the child of the marriage to Maud

That's part of the glory of this hobby, Chris, the spelling of names, & the dates of birth.

Spelling was phonetic before compulsory education & therefore it didn't matter how they were written.

Ozi.

Update: + what Reggie says.

Mis-spellings......or mistranscriptions have always to be allowed for...............the images are not always very clear, ditto the writing.......and much of the census transcription was farmed out by Ancestry to countries where English is not the first language..........and a knowledge of British geography is virtually zero.............

For give the newbie question...

Is it common to have the Surname mispelt? I know I have certainly come across one ancestor with her first name spelt differently of 3 census records.

Many thanks for the help.
