I don't know if this one has been done already, but I've found a Census G Cornwell aged 9 in 1901.  :D

I wonder what time of year he was born!

Not really a Censuswhack - more a 'Censuswhacky', but CAN YOU PLEASE SHOUT UP so that Emma Holmes, born Hull, living in Sculcoates Yorkshire CAN HEAR YOU - shown in the 1871 Ancestry index as aged 1010 years old! :o

And any questions about what the Romans ever did for us should be directed towards Mary A Pilkington, St Mary Newington, London, showing as aged 2010 in 1871.   :)

10 Points available for anyone spotted on the censuses who is OLDER than Mary Pilkington.  And they do exist, believe me!

:) In my own family I have:


...Found him in 1881, transcribed  as Bailey, but it is Beeley on the original image.This is taken from the original image and not the transcript.
Enoch Beeley, head, age 24, general labourer, born Mottram CheshireMargaret Beeley, wife, age 24, born county Leitrim IrelandMargaret Jane, daughter,age 2 born Staleybridge, LancashireEliza Ada, daughter, age 9 months born Wakefield Yorkshireaddress Thompson Buildings

AND THEN1891 CENSUS

ENOCH BEELEY, HEAD, AGE 35, MILLSTOKER (NOT TOO CLEAR) BORN MOTTRAMIN LONGENDALE
MARGARET, WIFE, AGE 35 BORN IRELAND
MARGARET J, DAUGHTER, AGE 12, COTTON WEAVER, BORN CHESHIRE DUNKINFIELD
ELIZA A, DAUGHTER, AGE 10, SCHOLAR BORN WAKEFIELD YORKSHIRE
ERNEST, SON, AGE 5, SCHOLAR BORN CHESHIRE DUNKINFIELD
JOHN W, SON, AGE 1 BORN CHESHIRE DUNKINFIELD

RG12/3291
ED 18 FOLIO 7 PAGE 7

CIVIL PARISH OF DUNKINFIELD

BUT IN from the original image and not the transcript.

...THE 1901 AND THIS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT REALLY LOOKS LIKELY ALTHOUGH IT APPEARS THAT ENOCH AND ERNEST HAVE SWAPPED NAMES! I WILL POST IT IN CASE THEY ARE YOURS.

ALL LISTED AS BORN STALYBRIDGE CHESHIRE

ERNEST BEELEY, HEAD, AGE 43, WIDOWER, GENERAL LABOURER
ENOCH,SON, AGE 16, GENERAL LABOURER
JOHN, SON, AGE 11
LOUISA, DAUGHTER, AGE 9
LEWIS, SON, AGE 7

So that is where the idea for the 1987 film 'Like Father Like Son' came from  - Do you think I could claim royalties?  ;D  ;D ;D

Also in
1853 Fanny long married James Quew, but by 1857 when she married Johnathon Jubber  her name had change from Quew to Quen.

Is it any wonder we all have to ask for other people to help when trying to trace family  ;D

I also shouldn't forget my own tree if we're finishing today.

In 1901 my grandfather George (later to change to Joseph Morris) and greatgrandfather Martin (who changed to be Peter Martin) are part of the only family of Domaszenwieg's in the country.....not sure whether the name is mis-transcribed or not.....I don't think  my greatgrandfather (who came over from Poland/Lithuania knew how  to write so it is spelt differently every time I've seen it)

He should be around at the time of the 1891 census (got married in Dec 1891)..but I haven't been able to find him at all..
