Title: COMPLETED : Dewsbury Census 1881 1891 lookup request
Post by: Richard Isaac ap Edward on Thursday 23 February 12 14:14 GMT (UK)

Hello there,
I'd like to fill in details of an Edward ISAAC who was living in Dewsbury for many years. It appears I have some extra children of his in my tree! if at all possible I would like to know what's going on in the census taken for 1881, 1891 and a stretch but 1901 would also be very helpful.

He was married to Mary Hamer from Farnworth , Lancs and was living in Shaw Cross, Dewsbury for certain in 1883. I believe his last child was born ca. 1904 in Dewsbury but somewhere after this they moved to Outwood, Wakefield.

Thanks all!

 :D tis indeed my GGGdad..
There's a fast bag of goodies for my notes! Thank you for the help there.
Re 1891 census, was there not an Edward mentioned between Alex and Ruth?

Edward remarried Eleanor Bairstow after Mary died. You found the Anne I thought wasn't his child, then there was a Mary 5 years later but they both disappear. I think they died young as Edwards obituary mention of his kids didn't include so many girls. Or he passed them to a relative as his wife was ill.

Anyway, much obliged, cheers!
