Alfred Parr's Family Composition
« on: Monday 21 February 05 22:10 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for the family composition of Alfred Parr living in Kenninghall, Norfolk in 1881, 1891 and 1901.  His year of birth is 1848 in Exning, Suffolk.

I'm particularly interested in getting the correct name of his daughter, it looks like "Alice Li. S. Parr" which is very bizarre!

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Hi

Looking at Alfred & his family in all the census mentioned I see that in 1891 Alice was down as AML Parr.  In 1901 she was not with the family but in 1881 it looks like Alice Li L Parr until you look at the Munro family at the top of the page and it does look as if the writer missed a bit off the right M stroke so it should and could be Alice M L ,,

You didnt really say what else you wanted to know.............

So I will leave it at that.

Best of luck

Hi Teddybear!

Thanks, but now I'm more confused!  How does "Alice Li. S." become "Alice M.L.", unless you mean that the 'Li' was misinterpreted and should have been an 'M'?  And the 'S' is really an 'L'?

I'd like to confirm the other family members' names, dob, etc.  Should be an Ernest and a Walter (sons) and wife Eliza.  I have another Ernest b. 1875 from the same generation but born to Ernest's brother David Parr b. 1852.  His place of birth is Stowkt and I'm not sure if that's an abbreviation for Stowmarket, the same place of birth as the other Ernest!  I want to be sure it's two different Ernests and not the same one!  Hopefully if they're present on each census from 1881, 1891 and 1901, then I can be sure it's two different people.

If you could give me a household list for Alfred Parr in each year, that would be great.

Cheers,

Mark Parr
