Picked this up whilst doing the USA search

British Census 1901
Reeves Thomas H 1864 London Stepney London, Mile End Old Town

Please can anyone view the original of this on GR, not showing on ancestry must be transcribed incorrectly. If possible to have a copy of the image that would be great (but not essential).

Many thanks

Just having a quick look before I disappear out for my shopping

So the 1901 does look a good match for James and Maria already posted for the 1911

Searched for evidence of inmate institution. Nothing obvious. Went to previous page but seemed to be in a middle of family homes with head of household mostly Farmers. Wonder if Ancestry has mis-transcribed. I will take another look. Can e mail it to you if you wish.

Vera - thank you I have now figured it out. Have been able to piece together Thomas's life as follows:-

To summaries:-

Thomas born 1863 to John & Maria Reeve

Thomas appears on 1871 & 1881 UK census.

c1882 he clears off to Canada

sometime before the 1901 census he returns to the UK

1901 Thomas living with his parents – showing as single.

1905 Thomas marries Harriett Dowler

1906 Ethel Harriett Reeves born

1913 Thomas clears off to Canada again

Sometime before 1920 Thomas returns

1920 Frank Reeves born

c1926 Thomas runs off again presumably back to Canada
