1901 census:
Tootles are still at the same place,
William. Alice, Mary or May, Sarah and William jrn all just 10 years older but a lucky family because all 3 children seem to have survived, now joined by:
John aet 7, George aet 5, Alice aet 1.
possible McIvers
Stephen McIver, 52
Mary, 49
Edward 17
Stephen 15.
Address looks like 48 Gerrard Street, Islington district of Liverpool
Stephen snr is a Basket Weaver, self employed, working from home. Born in Ireland
Mary was born in Liverpool, Lancashire, as were the boys. Both Edward and Stephen are working as 'scavengers'. That's not one I've come across before but I'm sure someone on this board will be able to enlighten us both as to exactly what that means.
There's no guarantee that this 1901 census entry is 'your' Stephen McIver, you would need to do much more cross checking to be sure, but I'm afraid the one below looks as if it is yours. I didn't go looking for this, it just came up:
Private Stephen McIver, Service No 3933
1st/8th Bn, Kings Liverpool Rgt
Died on 11th September 1916
Remembered on the Thiepval Memorial
Husband of Sarah J. McIver, of 22, St. Sylvester Place, Tatlock St., Liverpool.
Sorry.
