Just to say thanks to all those that replied on whether I should subscribe to the 1911 census on Find my Past .com I took the plunge. Now another teaser my Great Grandfathers brother Addison Cockin born in Bridgenorth about 1860 appears on the 1881 census with his family (the spelling at that time is Cockings) living in Coventry St, Wolverhampton. He then disappears and does not crop up again until the 1911 census living in St Matthews Street and has married at the age of 51 to Eliza Hughes. Can anyone shed light to what might have happened to him. Thank, Paul _________________________________________________________________ New Windows 7: Simplify what you do everyday.
