In 1861, John's father Charles was a shoemaker and resided at 156 Baptist Chapel??

In 1871, Charles was listed as either a hawler or hawker residing with his family at 1 Middle Turn.

This may be the marriage between Charles and Elizabeth Groocock.

Many Thanks Joan - lots of gaps filled again.

in 1901 - do we know what occupation / address for Charles' son John?

Dont think thats the correct marriage 1846 (?) as in 1871 he was 38.

Doesnt quite fit

Thanks anyway

Hi Folks

Just picked up your replies - thank you for all your hard work!

I have a quick question: Do any of the census give occupation / relationship details / addresses (sorry to be a pain - but all this info is very helpful).

Many thanks again
