Kevin, thank you for the reply, I can see where I lost "Jarvis" in my hunt for a death  if he is "Javis" and the Polly/ Mary thing.  (Aunt) Carole (nee Gant) can recall being taken to see a female Gant relative when she was young so around early 1950's, quote "she must have been elderly as she had very thin hair,"  (or alopecia)  Raymond Peter and his wife Phyllis Rhoda (nee Ambrose) lived at Chelmodiston.
Carole was an only child, she has photos of her dad and Basil Dennis and she thinks she may have one of her grandad.  I will ask her to let me borrow them to scan as they may be of interest to "Gant family" 
I am carol at cotcomdotcom - if you do have time to send me william's other children's marriages. To bring you up to the end of Peter's line Carole married Barney Read, there are two children Jonathan Read and Christina Read.
Best regards
Carol

Hi
I have just come across this while digging into my Aunt Carol (by marriage to Read) was (Carol nee GANT b. 1942) part of the family as she is with me on a family visit at the moment.  Working back - her father was Raymond Peter Gant 1915-1995, his father Peter Gant b. Elmsett 1879 d.1943 his father William Gant Elmsett 1848 (wife Rebecca) and his father Robert Gant (m. Eliza)
I have Williams Gant,s children Rebecca, Mary, Alice, William George, Eliza, George A, Jarvis, and Peter

William George m Ellen Coulson and had Basil Dennis Gant who went eventually to live with my aunt's father. She thought he was her Uncle until I found he was her dad's cousin. Basil had a sister Ada but my Aunt did not know there were any other Gant's of her fathers generation!  Is she related to your Gants?
Best regards
Carol ( suffolk/Norfolk - Jude / Read / Grint/ Bee and more..)

Well blow me down :o For everyones info. do not trust the 1901 census search there are errors.

(I would have bought the original page anyway eventually,) but, for jemima when you do a straight search they have transposed the age 35 to 53 which obv. causes problems when you put dates in a search and second the search for emmeline is misspelled emanuel (but female for gender). and thats just one family.  The wildcard doesnt seem to work for me either, if I do em* in the first name search box  plus Redd I get nothing. 

However, rant over thank you very much again Tati.

Wow Tati, thats amazing work  :) thank you. I had forgotten about surname misspells.  No I dont have full access to 1901.  I tend to get a good few bits together that I'm pretty sure of and then buy some pay-as-you-go credit and print off some pages. But I have got pretty canny at searches once I have keywords from a definite, - now have all the kids inc. emmeline becoming emanuel (F) and father Samuel,  terrific. thanks again.

Suffolk Completed Lookup Requests / *COMPLETED*1901 census Gorleston Mutford READ family

Hello all, I am stuck  Lost Read family 1901. not in yarmouth workhouse.
census 1891 Samuel F Read  25yrs Gorleston Mutford and Jemima Read 25yrs Gorleston Mutford married no children.

census 1911 Samuel Francis Read  and Jemima Read 43yrs children William Read 13 (1898), Emmaline (or Emmeline) Read  1894  , Bertie Read  1896 15,  Samuel E 1891, Harold V Read 1904 and Gladys A 1902 my dates of birth I think are fairly reliable.

All I can see in 1901 is a jemima Read in south mimms and its not mine.  My Jemima was born a    Clark(e)  "Blofield" or "Acle"
Any ideas gratefully received. I wondered if they went abroad though not likely as the two youngest were born in "Suffolk"  I do know the area they lived seems to have"moved" on the census from "Mutford" to "Great Yarmouth"

Hello, I came across your post while looking for something else.
My grandmother on my fathers side was Rachel Grint, she married samuel Edward Read from Gorleston Mutford (census area) 1913. They had 4 boys 4 girls including my father Jack Edward Read. most of the family still live local to Lowestoft.
So I guess we are vaguely related?  I will add your information to the bits I have already.

My problem - lost the Read family 1901.   Have them 1891 and 1911 and they weren't in yarmouth workhouse in 1901 either.
