Good Morning friends,
Would someone be able to do a census look up for me please.
There's not a lot to go on though.....Harold Price, who married May Tranter in Wellington, Shropshire in Dec 1924, had two other brothers, by the names of Percival and Jim who I am trying to find.
I was just thinking about the 1901 or 1911, or even the 1921 census, wandering if anyone can find the three of them, hopefully in Shropshire.
That's all the info I've got at the moment though.
Thanks.

Hi
All censuses except 1921 are free to search here
https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/collection/list?cqs=england+census
Looking at Leonards birth shows mmn Hancocks
James Price & Adelaide Hancocks married March qtr 1892 - www.freebmd.org.uk
Adelaide's surname could be spelt Handcock or Hancox on pre marriage censuses

Thus may be totally irrelevant ,but a James Price ( Jim) lived in Snailbeach .
He was a Police Constable or a Special Constable in the 1940’s when I lived in a little hamlet really ,Snailbeach, ,South of Shrewsbury off the road to Bishops’ Castle.
He married Dora Blakemore and there was one son Reginald ,
Dora’s sister Gertrude married the son of my grandmother’ younger sister and I lived with them for a time when evacuated.
Most probably no connection but you never know.
Viktoria.

Q1 1918, Wellington, Shropshire
and to this birth:
Hazel Maureen Price
Q2 1920
Madeley, Shropshire
mmn North

I found Percy and Clara Price in 1939. The birth date recorded there matches this death:
Percy Price born 13/1/1894
died 1975 Q1 Shrewsbury
I have not found anything in newspapers relating to this death.
