Hello I have found a potential family but the age of the mother in the 1881 census is about 10 years too young! The father is about the right age so I am wondering if there might be a transcription error?

Hi, It would be great if you could get me this one from the 1901: Philip ROSS, age 30, civil parish Wales, county Yorks West Riding There should also be an Armond ROSS in the household if she is easier to search for. Thanks for offering, Liz

Hi Peter, If you have any credit remaining, would you possibly be able to look on the 1881 for me. There is a Chas. aged 25 born Brighton Sussex listed as a lodger at 37 Tavistock Crescent London Middlesex RG11 0012/59 page 18 The head is a Joseph Ledwick. I was wondering whether there was a surname listed for Chas as he is the right age for a person that I have lost. Many thanks Sue:-)

Peter

Peter Report 17 Oct 2004 17:49

Sue Sorry 1881 also only lists Chas no Surname as a lodger born 1856 in Brigton a Clerk and listed single. Peter
