I have studdied the results you kind people have found for me, of which I am very pleased about. Is there anyone with access to the 1891 census that can look up Francis and his wife Elizabeth please? Francis b 1862 Newbury area Bagnor Berkshire. Thank you.
As a bit more info there is a gertrude b 1889 approx to Francis and Elizabeth. Does this help to narrow the field?
