Judie, He spells his name Maloney and is easily found in both 1901 and 1911 on the National census site. As a national teacher you'd expect he could spell his own name. However his father looks to be listed as Malone. He too is in both 1901 and 1911 as Malone. I was tempted to try the variant spelling, but you seemed so sure with your data. I even tried Mary Pilkington, but if you look she's spelt Pelkington. One of the things I was hoping to find was how many children Michael & Honora had. But sadly this is left blank in 1911. So we're left with John and Marian. I'd keep looking for the marriage of Marian to a Pilkington but you'll need to try all the Malone, Maloney, Moloney variants. And you can't be sure it's Marian, Maryanne or Marion. At least we solved the census issues. Peter
