Sharren,
your reply came while I was still typing. 
My guess is that Robert Goodman doesn't / didn't exist, this was a transcriber's joke !

Yes and the fact that he was 12 when his eldest son was born,and that son's occupation is Ponce?

Hmmm he had lots of fun filling that census in............any guesses as to why he had that many young single men living there?

Someone on another site posted this family - you should check it out.


1881 Census
Robert Goodman born Maidstone, Kent 1829 living in Paddington.

Let me know what you think!!
Regards, Olly

I don't see any census  ???  I see Robert and that's it. Am I supposed to hunt it down? I can't do that.

Hilarious  ;D ;D ;D

Robert being an International Playboy, must have picked up his household on his travels abroad.

Cecily, an ageing heiress was obviously won over by this smooth talking gigalo whilst holidaying in India.

The Ponce could have been Cecily's love child by an earlier liaison with an upper class woofta, and took the Goodman name cos his Dad was already married with umpteen children of his own and had disowned him.

I think it must have been April 1st when this census was submitted   ;D ;D ;D

I have to be a right spoil sport but this enty isn't on Ancestry.

I reckon it might be a hacker leaving proof he has got into the database.

Just a guess.

So it's either a Hacker, as Pam suggests
