Title: (completed) 1871 census please? Gloucestershire - HOWELL again
Post by: ChristineR on Saturday 03 September 05 08:15 BST (UK)
This time I am looking for this fellow in 1871 please.  It will be wonderful if he turns out to be my George's father; George named a son Edwin, so it could happen.   ;D

Edwin HOWELL, aged abt 59, born Bristol

In 1881 he was 69, an unemployed Clothiers Cutter,
and living with his daughter's family (Markus & Lillian PERKS)
at 127 Newfoundland Road, Navarino Place, Bristol St Paul In.
According to an entry on FreeBMD he died later in 1881, aged 70.

regards
Christine   :)

This guy does not have a George in 1861 either - additional children Charles, Edith & Zillah.

Would you like me to find one that does?

Hello Arranroots,

thanks for that.  You wouldn't believe that Zillah is the one shown as Lillian in the 1881, I found the marriage on FreeBDM as Zillah too. 

It is GOOD that he doesn't have a George, as mine was in Australia by 1855.   To belong to this family, he would have to be one of the firstborn. 

Can you please tell me the ages of Charles and Edith in 1861? And were they at the same address?

Thanks
Christine  :)

Many Thanks,
I cannot find a marriage on FreeBMD so I'm hoping that they married before civil reg and had older children.  I've posted a lookup on the Gloucestershire forum.
thanks for you help.
