Often middle names seem to appear as used in lieu of the first Name. Was this common, possibly to avoid the use of junior? What about this practice in female lines? -----Original Message----- From: ontario-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:ontario-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Stella Stanger Sent: Saturday, January 21, 2012 5:46 PM To: Susan Fowler; ontario@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [ONTARIO] Missing Fowler family Hi Susan, Anna M. FOWLER was 13 years old in the 1871 Census. By the time of the 1881 Census she would have been 23 years old - Perhaps married - or working and living elsewhere. Francis E FOWLER was 11 years old in 1871 Census. 21 in 1881. He may also not be living at home - working elsewhere. after 1881. Have you searched under Frank? Are there family letters -marriages for other children - that might mention Anna and Francis.? Obituaries for the parents ? Do you know what the middle name of Francis is. He may have chosen to use that name as an adult. At 08:40 AM 21/01/2012, Susan Fowler wrote: >I have found my family in the 1871 census and then the 1881 census. >However 2 have gone missing.
