1901 Sheffield Census look up please

[CBD]

Hi, I hope someone can help me this evening. I'm trying to find out if my great grandfather, William Brooks was living with his father, Eli Brooks in Sheffield during the 1901 census and if so, who else was living with them. William would have been 19 years old and unmarried. He was either an engineer or an electric crane driver in an egineering company. I don't know anything about Eli Brooks.
Thank you. CBD.

Where was William born - Sheffield or elsewhere?

Have you checked the free 1901 census index for William's whereabouts

The only William Brook(e)s b Sheffield on the 1891 was b 1890 and was William H M Brookes - father was Elijah a razor grinder

No William Brook(e)s with a father Eli** b 1881/2

Is this them? At 34, Edger St, Brightside Bierlow.  RG13/4378; Folio 142 p33.

Eli BROOKES, head, m, 43, Wood Sawyer, b Matlock, Derbys
Lizzie BROOKES, wife, m, 41, baker
William BROOKES, son, 16
WIlfred BROOKES, son, 12
J Luther BROOKES, son, 8
Joseph BURTON, stepson, 8
Edward CHAPMAN, boarder, m, 30, (can't read the occupation), b Greenwich, Kent
Elizabeth CHAPMAn, boarder, m, 34, b Plumstead, Kent

Otherwise b. Sheffield.

Eli seems to have married Lizzie Burton in 1883 so Joseph Burton won't be a stepson in the modern sense.

The boarder's occupation is "steel fettler".

The address is actually 30 Edgar Street.

Thank you for your help. This must be them as there's another link with Edgar Street. I'm struggling because of the thousands of William Brooks' and the two different ways of spelling Brooks.

Thanks again.
