Title: 1901 census look-up
Post by: sushi on Friday 11 July 08 10:35 BST (UK)
Would anyone be so kind as to look up the 1901 Leicestershire census for me please?

Wilfred Cunningham (probably son)
born circa 1891
could have been living in Loughborough at the time.
I would like the whole family if that were possible.
Thanks in advance

Heh Diddy! Thanks for the local know-how! I will update the info accordingly. My father-in-law lives in Narborough, but he's getting on and doesn't remember much about his wifes family.
Thanks again!
