Hi Daisey
We have found the same reference also a girls is on the same page/volume with the same surname.
But Farther in laws mother never told him anything about his farther so we do not know what became of him. Have checked with Coventry blitz records and they do not contain his name so we do not know what to do next ?

Hello Dean,
There are quite a few Southern families in Radford on 1901 census.
It would be a good idea to send for the birth certificate to get his parents names
or do you have father in laws mothers marriage cert -that would give Frederick Williams father's name and occupation-also (possibly)address where he was living at time of marriage.
