Yes William Senior was born Colchester.
1861 and 1871 I have him with parents in Colchester.
1881 - No trace of him or his wife Catherine

They married 1878 in Preston
Their first child died

This is from Lancashirebmd

All with Mother MN : Tommony
GOODY / GOODEY
1879 – William (died 1883)
1881 – George Henry
1883 – James
1885 – Mary Jane
1887 – Elizabeth
1889 - Charles
1891 – William
1893 – Arthur
1895 – John
1896 – Hannah
1902 - Catherine

My grandmother (Hannah in the above list) told me that her mother Catherine also took in an orphan but her name was Josephine not Catherine.

So why say they had only 6 children on 1911 and 1 died?

If as you say William died in 1910 why is he on it?

I really dont know.

But I have not found a Richard Goody/ey for Catherine jnrs father either.

Just a thought.

Could it be that on the original document a 10 has been mistaken for the figure 6?

1911 census with William who has supposed to have died,was signed by William the same William who filled it in.
If you compere the William on top line and signature,and it definately says he was born Preston.

Very Weird.

It also says 6 children 5 still alive and 1 died.

Send me your email Michael and I will send you the original.

If you are totally certain that this is the 1911 with your Grandmother Hannah 1896 on it then maybe the death you have is someone else?
I dont see how though.

Just a thought.
Do you have Hannahs birth cert to be certain you have the correct family,or some other way of being sure?
I dont mean that to sound rude but we all make mistakes ,even the best of us ,like me..:))

Hello,

Just manning the computer whilst Michael is out.



He will get back to you later I am sure.

Many thanks.

I meant by PM...!

Please edit the email out,it is not allowed on here and you can get any old nut sending you things if you are not careful.
Like a nice virus?
It is also against GR rules..

I have sent it.

Hi.
Yes I have Hannah's birth cerrt.1896. Parish of St. Peters Preston. Father William Goodey, General labourer. Mother Catherine Goodey formerlyTommony.

I have also closely checked William's death cert and it is not a photocopy but is hand written. I wonder if the date has been mistranscribed ? Mind you, it says age 50.

Well I dont know what to say Michael.

We have a problem Houston??

I have sent it again,would it open this time?

Just come through now !

Weird !
Somebody's lying, but why ?
Or did they start taking the census early ? (Prior to Nov. 1910).
Thanks for sending it.
Baffling !
Houston didn't have a problem compared to this lot !

Is there a prize for stumping the panel ?!! (:>)

Not an answer but possibly worth keeping in mind while pondering

George was listed as son 1901 to widow hannah.
Could be that he is Thomas's stepson. I find often in laws etc listed as lodgers

Do you have William + Catherin's marriage cert??

I was just wondering if you could compare William's signature on there with the one on 1911 census??
