Unless you can persuade someone to give you a budget, I can’t see a way to get the MC & his occupation for free.

A poor transcription aside, the reasons for being absent from a census could be
- abroad
- at sea
- in the military posted abroad
- the child of a service family resident abroad.

Thank you +++DetEcTive+++


There is no budget I'm afraid, it is a voluntary project on my part.
Please people don't waste your valuable time.

I will just list the information I can find in the Remembrance and if some have more detail than others so be it.

Many thanks everyone for your help it is much appreciated. I may dare to come back with another of my brick walls..

ArgyllGran Report 29 Nov 2018 20:02

On the 1911 census for Ella, her name is on the 4th line, and the first three lines are blank.
She has also been listed as Daughter-in-law at first, which has been scored out and "Head" substituted

That seems to indicate that she was living with her in-laws, and was expecting their names to be on the first three lines, above hers.

And then - they moved elsewhere before the census date and left her living alone??

Probably a co-incidence, but googling Henry Andrew Coyne-Gardiner comes up with a
librettist:

Henry Andrew Gardiner Coyne (October 1839 — 7 April 1900)

Kucinta Report 29 Nov 2018 21:19

The parents were in Wales in 1884. The Tenby Observer Weekly List of Visitors and Directory 27th November 1884 has MR And Mrs Gardiner Coyne appearing at the public Hall. Miss Bertha Fletcher ( Mrs G Coyne) is the heroine. Mr Gardiner Coyne plays her foster brother with the 'true hearted Hiberrian ring which has justly stamped him as one of the famous Irish actors of the day'.

There is quite a lengthy account of their various performances:

OOh maybe not Kucinta as I have found Ella Dale on the 1901 census and she was a professional musician and her father was a professional vocalist - there may well be a connection as to how they met.
Thank you I will follow that through :-)

Hi Christine, we may have crossed in the post. See my link to his parents' performances in Tenby in my post before your last one.

Just took a quick look at newspapers on FMP, lots of refs esp to MR G-C, and references to him being Irish.

Edit: The Era 29 February 1896 shows Gustavus as a 'young comedian'

Kucinta you are a marvel thank you. I can't get the Henry info on a google search but thanks for the info.

They certainly kept chainging their names around, no wonder they are hard to find!
