    1. 1901 census query
    2. J Weeks
    3. In a 1901 census extract for Wiltshire I have a James Weeks (Nos. 3631789 and 147096) born Handley Dorset. The only other info. is :- Branksome Contractors. Carter. In the extract I have there is no town or area noted. Can anyone tell me if Branksome means the name of a contractor, a town or something? Please excuse my ignorance. Maybe this is just not my day.
