Hi Aberdein

Thanks for your reply, but I have got James on 1901 and I have also got Elizabeth's death.

It is William I am trying to find.

Thanks anyway

Hi Keyboard 86

Yes, you are correct. Actually, I did see this one, but dismissed it as I saw 'Dorset' as birth place, which threw me, also I was looking for the same occupation as on the previous census - not a good thing to do:(
But what finally clinched it and told me you were right, was the address, being Cooksey Road, (which was where I used to live years ago:) and the family Brettell's married into, was my maiden name family of Wakeman/Owen, so I should have looked properly:)
Anyway, any chance of finding him on the 1871 - please???
Regards and many thanks
