Family History Beginners Board / Re: Explaining the Census
« on: Tuesday 05 July 05 12:53 BST (UK) »
Thanks for that. Does that mean that if only one family is recorded at the address and they only occupied 3 rooms then it was just a small house? Also on the 1901 census for my family there is a girl of 13 years who is described as a relative. Her job is Domestic Servent and under column 14 "employer, worker or own account" it says "at home". What does this mean? Did she work for my great-great grandfather or did she live there and work for someone else? Sorry to be a pain asking all these question but I'm really new to this. Thank you.

On the 1901 census does the rooms occupied column mean that they family only occupied, say 3 rooms in a bigger house or was the house small? Also does three rooms mean only three rooms ie bedroom, kitchen and living room? If a family occupies 5 rooms or more would this be quite a well to do family?

Yorkshire (North Riding) / Timmins, Ashley or Hooton

I am researching the names Timmins, Ashley and Hooton. The Timmins family are from Dudley, Worcestershire. I'm not sure when they came to Middlesbrough but they appear in 1901 censu. The Ashley family are from Over, Cheshire again not sure when they came to Middlesbrough but they appear in 1901 census. The Hooton's are from Staithes.

Worcestershire / Re: Timmins - Dudley

My great grandfather William Thomas Timmins was born in Dudley. He married Mary Ashley from Over, Cheshire in Middlesbrough, North Riding of Yorkshire. William's father Edward Timmins was also born in Dudley I believe he may have married Ellen Walker but am not 100% sure on that yet.
