Hi Dianna The 1901 census was held on 31 March 1901 - before Francis was born. Do you have a year of birth for his father? I am having trouble finding his parents in 1901. Do you know if Frances had any older brothers or sisters I could look for? There is also a 1911 census available on-line - at this stage only at www.findmypast.co.uk The index is free but you will need to pay to get the full entry if you can find your family. I suggest getting the original image rather than the transcription as the image has more info including the number of children born to a married woman. A transcription of the 1881 census is available free at www.familysearch.org The census years (1841, 1851, 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891 & 1901) are available on a range of pay sites - just google for UK census A couple of sites to get you started - www.genuki.org.uk & www.freebmd.org.uk Both have excellent links to other sites & concise useful info.

Hi Ingrid I can't believe I did that not putting in a year how silly. His father was born in 1863 in Ireland and his mother in 1867 New Gateshead. Yes there were quite a few children there was a Hugh, Margaret there was at least 10 children that's all I can remember at the moment. Thanks so much for your help Kind regards Dianna
