I have not yet clicked on the actual info. for the 1901 census (for
various
reasons), but I have found my grandparents and their first child
there,
(John Henry and Esther PRICE). I have also found his two sisters, Edith
and
Evelyn (Eveline) listed in Monmouth, Blaina, where I suspected they
were
all
along. Since they were ages 17 and 15 in 1901, they were undoubtedly
still
living at home and information re their parents (George and Emily Jane
PRICE) will probably be there, too. George, Emily Jane and John Henry are
nowhere to be found on the 1881 census, (John Henry was about 5 at that
time), so they must have been missed by the census taker. I also found my
maternal great grandfather, David SMITH, and I am anxious to see whether
he
was living with wife number 2 or 3 at the time, wife number 1 having
died
years before. He and wife number 3 produced two more children, Basil and ?
so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Wife number 1's family, the DAVIES
will
require a number of clicks to find her brothers (John, Anthony,
Joshua)
because only Anthony was positively identified on the 1881. Since I have
no
idea of the ages/occupations of John or Joshua, searching for them
will be
a
crap shoot. I also located in Rochdale, Lancashire, my husband's
father
(one
year old at the time) so It will be great for him to relearn his
gp's
names!
No luck finding anyone else. Esther (Edmonton, Alberta)
