Hi Lorraine, thank you for the info. on Ralph Hartley, didn't realise he was living stratford on avon......as regards mary hartley his mother anmd john his father I don't know where they were born but, I think I have mary and ralph on the 1911 census, it has mary as a widow if that's her. I have always been given to believe they lived in the manchester area but who knows, I thought they may have turned up on the 1901, they are proving very elusive.

Many thanks

Hello Lorraine, it's me again!Would you mind doing another look up for me please?
Another Jones, brother of the last one you found for me - Thomas Charles Jones born c1863 - we believe he went to Canada too but we know he came back - otherwise I wouldn't have been born!!
He is on the 1901 UK census and on the 1911 so he must have gone and come back between these dates. (His brother went in 1907)
grateful thanks
