I'm trying to follow the ancestor line of my grandmother on my Mum's side, a Margaret Jane Franklin b.@ 1892 in and around London as far as I know.....She married a James Smith in 1914 and then my Mum Mary was born the following year. I don't seem to be able to find her in the census records......any help really appreciated...

Have you got the actual marriage certificate of Margaret Franklin?
Thanks

Hi...am still working on this..I have filled my tree in with all the above information but, . I still have a problem with Margaret Jane Franklin...I just can't find her in the census anywhere .?

I think I had a look and also could not see anything.
Will try again.

Perplexed:

FRANKLIN, Mary Wife F 39 1872 6 children born, all living

FRANKLIN, George Son M 7 1904
FRANKLIN, Arthur Son M 5 1906

County: London

Even more perplexed.
I looked to see if I could find William, born 1898, (birth place not specified in 1911) with parents William and Mary in 1901.
These parents are the correct age, and he is a bricklayer, but rather too many children - just co-incidence?

Thanks again..yes its a puzzle, I first thought that maybe Margaret Jane Franklin was written down as Jane Franklin, but then its the wrong parents......I suppose all persons must be on the census somewhere...but she is definitely not down......a bit more digging during the week and see where I can get with it.....Regards Susan

Hi..having been searching around for information on why she not coming up on the 2 census returns. I first tried different spellings but got nothing. I found a couple of suggestions that were interesting. Margaret may heve been in hospital at the time, but ruled that out because she wasn't in 2 of the census. She may have been brought up with grandparents who didn't put her on the forms ....or possibly placed in an orphanage due to the fact the family may have been too poor to keep her at that stage......one of the above may be why we could not find her....thanks for your help ...Susan

Right, been spending hours on this. I think Ihave now solved the above. I went into the 1891 and 1881 census, and feel that there were a few mistakes either due to the family misprinting wrong dates etc or misreading the names when the record was printed. So foloowing is what I've come up.So hope this makes sense :- William James Franklin b.1845 head...Augusta Eliza Shepherd wife married @ 1863....
children
Margaret b.1864
William j b.1870
Arthur b. 1873
Harriett b. 1876
Walter b. 1878
Ann b. 1881
eliza b. 1882
Fred b. 1886

Also the maryann franklin that was witness at wedding to Margaret Jane Franklin might well be the maryann b. 1894 with a dad Alfred Franklin b. @1858 which think was in Pancras, london. My thinking on that is Alfred may have been a disatnt relative of the same Franklins....but if they made mistakes on the census that could be why there is no record of Margaret Jane Franklin on the census too. hope that all makes sense......Susan

Just posting the 1881 to agree with what you have found:
William J. Franklin Age: 36 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1845
Relation: Head Spouse's Name: Augusta Franklin
Gender: Male Where born: Ashbridge
Civil parish: St Leonard County/Island: London
Country: England
Street Address: 14 Loanda St Condition as to marriage: Married
Occupation: Man Cook
Registration district: Shoreditch Sub-registration district: Haggerston
ED, institution, or vessel: 20 Piece: 405 Folio: 37 Page Number: 13
William J. Franklin 36
Augusta Franklin 35
William J. Franklin 17 NO, this is 12
Margaret Franklin 11
Arthur Franklin 8
Harriett Franklin 5
Walter Franklin 3
Annie Franklin
Source Citation: Class: RG11; Piece: 405; Folio: 37; Page: 13; GSU roll: 1341088.
So the only age that is out is Augusta's.

Still not happy that Margaret Jane is not showing on any census with correct parents.

Agree with you..not happy Margaret Jane not showing up in census....will work some more on it.....thanks so much for your help, susan
