1901 Lookup please Ritson & Barnes

[Necromancer]

so, have you looked for a death of the Ethel / Edith whichever that he married in 1893 - if she died before 1901, he's alone and we cant use a christian name only / spouse search ....

Hello again

Yes i did thanks BUT this one I can't find I'm afraid.


The Lancs BMD site is great for birth & marriages but it doesn't seem to have deaths for Liverpool transcribed yet

FreeBMD then ?

[IanLambert]

Thanks

I tried that too but under the names - perhaps I will try just the initial only

its a tough one not being able to find him / them in the 1901 census - using just christian names, ages etc - and with Hunter just PoB of Cum* doesnt tease out any obvious mistrans   

[Necromancer]

They werent lucky with children - as well as that Elfrida, this looks like another daughter ?

Deaths Jun 1898

Does anyone know where the Harrington is where Miriam Barnes is in 1891?

Got there in the end - looking for kids with unusual forenames in the BMD and seeking them on the census revealed:-

1901 - RG13/3432; Folio: 135; Page: 15 - Toxteth Park
172, Aigburth Road

Hemter [sic] Hilson [sic]  50  Head Grocer  St Benet?, Cumberland
Esther G Hilson 36  Wife Whitehaven, Cumberland
Marjorie B Hilson* 2  dau Liverpool
Aldra E Hilson 1  dau do

Ellen L Ross 29  Visitor Leicester



*Registered as Margery Beryl .....

That's brilliant

I would never have found him, so Esther was from Cumberland too...


I just need to find Miriam Barnes fom the 1891 census and then I can track back the other way.


Thanks for all your help today


Ian
