I have been doing a Vicary one-name study for some time now and would be interested to learn of your Vicary connections

In the last census Ernest, Rose and baby Violet are all together in Sussex. Ernest is a cowman on a farm, and his birth year is put at 1885.

I couldnt find that entry. I could only find Rose Emily alone with Violet and a E H Langridge with parents. Could you point me in the right direction to it please?

The address they are at are South Street, Chailey, Sussex.

If you search for Violet Rose Langridge born 1910 this will find them.

Birth years in census are approximate, she was probably written down as a one year old but could have been between one and two on census night.

Of course, forgive my naeivity (doesnt look like i spelt that right!)
Bit frustrated though as I subscribed to My Ancestry, but they havent got the 1911 census, so I have to keep paying for entries which is making it all a bit expensive!!
