Title: Pothicary/Pothecary (1901 census)
Post by: Lemmons on Saturday 07 June 08 20:42 BST (UK)

Hi I am trying to find my great great uncle Richard Pothicary/Pothecary on the 1901 uk census.  He was born in Mountain Ash in 1891.  Would be grateful for any help in finding him.

Thanks for reply, I believe Richard had an uncle called Charles, perhaps the 'C' stands for Charles as well.
