Hi All, I have a small problem, related to Essex (just), but directly related to searching Ancestry.co.uk. A WEST family lived in Harwich. Mother + kids are found at 44 Fernlea Rd, Harwich. Annie Elizabeth WEST gives her occupation as 'Husband at sea'. Given past experience with her husband (Henry William WEST), this comes as no surprise. How he ever found time to get a family, I don't know! He always seems to have been at sea! So. The question. How do I find this salty sea dog in the 1911 census when he's on an unknown vessel? My normal searching tricks have paid no dividend, and I've run out of ideas (short of browsing thousands of images) as to how to find him. What I know. Henry William WEST. Born towards the end of 1868 in Harwich. Married Annie Elizabeth LAMBERT around March 1894 in Harwich. What else is needed? In 1901 he was enumerated on an unknown vessel. Help! How do I find him? -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg
