Hi John, You seem to have the bug! Thanks for your help. The 1901 census is as follows 1901 Census Rg 13/2840 Folio 129 page 26 14 Court 3 Frankfort Street Albert Davis Head, Age 24 Pearl Button Cutter Born Birmingham Warwicks Alice Davis wife Age 26 Press Worker Born Birmingham Warwicks Alice Davis Daughter age 1 born Birmingham Warwicks This is definitely them because of the daughter Alice. I have her wedding and Birth certificate. However I believe Albert and Alice's ages have been swapped! Alice was 69 in 1946 when she died. This would make her 24 in 1901. and possibly Albert died in 1937 age 63 which would make him 26/7 in 1901. Therefore in 1891 Alice would have been 14 and Albert would have been 16 which rules out both people that you found. Also according to the original image of the 1901 all the people on the page were Ditto'd. I've come across this a couple of times now where the enumerator got it wrong and they were born elsewhere, the possibility of which opens up a possible can of worms. The Albert Edward comes from the birth certificate of one of their four children. He registered the birth and got his name right. Everywhere else Alice seems to have been in control and misses out Edward, which would have been the same on his death registration. I'm sorry I'm rambling on too much but any further help or suggestions I would be most grateful for. Regards Allen

Ah !!!! Hello Allen: You said in this message to John "The Albert Edward comes from the birth certificate of one of their four children. He registered the birth and got his name right." One never knows what clues can be picked up; could you post all the children's details, names, places of births, etc etc. to the list. Could possibly help the searching ! Plus, do not assume the marriage was "before" wee Alice was born. Barb, Ontario, Canada.
