Are you sure it is your Henry Flint??

Could Henry have been married before and his 1st wife died? John Hill may have been her father what would make  the stated relationship correct.

Not everyone gave widower etc and he may have said unmarreid as technically he wwould have been.

Hi,

Yeah I am 100% certain hes my Henry Flint - his Daughter had a very unusual name - Planceana Mary - and she & her brother John are listed as living in the same house.

He would have been a widower in 1891 when the cencus was taken - his wife Mary died in 1888.

I hit the records last night & I cant find a Flint / Hall marriage in the right area & time, very strange.

Is this a Scottish Census?  I also make it John Hall and 76 and widr  and Henry kbut cannot make out the surname, but would also say widwr for him.

Is this Aberdeen, because I have a John Hall married to Margaret Forbes and am now curious.

No, sorry its Bollington In Cheshire.
The place of birth for John is also Bollington so I dont think hes a 'stray' scot sorry

Does this help?

I make it John Mace for some reason... but then I'm often wrong on these things!
It looks like 'Hall' or 'Hale' to me.
Hi Gaille,

I also see it as 'Hall'

Maggie

Thank you all :)
I read it as Hall - But .............. I originaly saw it as Mace when I first saw it.

Why is life never simple - the nice simple Mc'Rea I was expecting would have been much easier!
