1891 Census for Deal & Walmer

[BettyofKent]

I know the 1901 census for Deal is missing, but does anyone know if parts of the 1891 census  for Deal & also Walmer are missing?
I've lost an entire family somewhere in this area!

Hi Betty
Who are you looking for, perhaps someone on here can help. Looking at the 1891 census for Deal there are 9 districts, I don't know wether thats all of them

Hi Betty

I've not heard of any of Deal or Walmer being missing in 1891.  As Ricky suggests, why not post the details and see if somebody else can find them.

Thank you, I would be grateful if someone could look.

Samuel SKINNER born 1841 Deal, Kent
Mary Ann Dixon SKINNER (wife) born 1844 Walmer, Kent

Some of the older children have left home, the younger ones most likely still with their parents are -
Charles Albert Skinner 1880 Deal
Frederick James Skinner 1877 Northbourne
William Henry Skinner 1876 Walmer
They were living in Deal in 1890, as their youngest child, Walter Ernest died there age 7.

Scrub Mary Ann, she died in 1883 
2nd wife, married 1884, is Fanny Eliza born 1858 Walmer.
They had 7 more children,  4 of them should be with them on 1891

Hi Betty

Mary Ann Dixon SKINNER, w/o Samuel, died in Middle Street aged 38 and was buried in Deal Cemetery on 12 June 1883

Samuel SKINNER, pensioner, died in Deal Hospital aged 83 and was buried in Deal Cemetery on 23 December 1924

Charles Albert SKINNER, gardener, died at 14, Railway Terrace, Albert Road, aged 54, and was buried at Deal Cemetery on 7 February 1934

William Henry SKINNER, pensioner, of Niton Terrace, Northwall Road, died at home aged 70 and was buried at Deal Cemetery on 12 June 1946

Ethel Elizabeth SKINNER, d/o Samuel, died at Oak Cottage, Middle Deal, aged 5 months, and was buried at Deal Cemetery on 24 April 1885

That eliminates a few and gives you some addresses to consider...

Might be worth a trip to Deal library to look at directories, parish registers, etc. and the film copy of the census.

Regards, Bill

Hi Bill
Thank you so much for this info. it's very useful.
I've only just started on this side of the family & there's rather a lot of them, I now know what my Father meant when he said half of Deal was related to the other half 
Thanks again

He wasn't far wrong Betty - at least in the 1800s!

There are 41 SKINNERs in the cemetery records from 1856-1948, but I don't know if they are all related.

Hello Betty

Bit late I know but I haven't been a member long. This may be of interest.

Samuel SKINNER, Widower, Gas Stoker of Middle Deal married Fanny Eliza BUSHELL of Middle Deal on 3/7/1884. They had several children which I believe you know about.
