Is there anyone who can find Henry W. Hibbs (born Paddington 1845) and his wife Emma on the 1901 census? I've searched under every mistranscription I can think of and they don't show. They should have been living in the Notting Hill area, and Henry was a stonemason. Perhaps someone who has access to another provider apart from Ancestry will have more luck? Jeanette
