HI
I have now been able to find out more information Frank Greaves wife her name was Ellen Elizabeth Yates (Nellie).
She was born 1897 sorry I don't know where poss Worcester.
Frank was probably born around the same time in Worcester.
Please can any one find themon the 1901 census.
Thanks

According to FreeBMD there are two Ellen Elizabeth Yates born in 1897.
One in Ashborne Derbyshire and the other in Shoreditch London.
Without knowing her(or his) parents names or brothers and sisters as a double check,you could easily be following the wrong family.
I will list the 3 Franks in a minute- any idea what his dad did for a job?

Right then here we go............
3 Frank Greaves in Worcestershire in 1901
One age 5 living in Hasbury, son of Ebenezer(a rivet maker) and Sarah G
Another age 20 living in Quinton son of George(a gun barrell borer) and Jane
And lastly one age 2 living in Dudley son of Arthur(a Prof of music!!!) and Gertrude A .
From your previous posting this last one is looking promising-what do you think?
Carol
Oops forgot to say the last one is down as Frank A- does yours have a second intial?

Thanks
The last posting of prof of Music sounds as if there might be a connection with my grandfather!!
Thanks for looking.

Do you know what the C stands for?
There are 3 Francis C's on Free BMD one in West Bromwich June 1882.
He is Francis Chesmer Greaves
Francis Charles in Coventry in March 1/4 of 1892
and Francis Cleminson in Lancaster in Dec 1/4 of 1894.
Makes all the difference if he was registered as Frank or Francis of course.

Carol

Don't worry about it. The tip here for the future is to give as much info as you knpw from the outset and we'll all find it much easier to help you find those elusive ancestors.
We can then avoid spending ages looking for stuff you already know.
Regards
Carol

Just to keep you in the picture the name Whitfield comes from the great, great grandma and its her surname. After all these years the name Whitfield has carried on through are family since 1800 until the present day!! :D
