1891 census for Letby
« on: Wednesday 06 April 05 17:07 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find Richard Letby. I haven't been able to locate any birth details for him yet. He was meant to born Feb 1888. I have found him in 1901 transcribed as Letley.
Ecclesall Bierlow
Thomas Letby, 60, confectioner, york
Jane, wife, 53, Sheffield
Emily, daur, 32,  ,,
Richard, son, 13,  ,,

I also have them as Letby in 1881
Thomas, 50, confectioner, York
Jane, 33, Sheffield
Kate, 13, Birmingham
Emily, 12, Sheffield
and transcribed as Selby in 1871
Nether Hallem,
Thomas, 30, confectioner, York
Jane, 23, Sheffield
Kate, 3, Birmingham
Emily, 2, Sheffield

I can't find them at all in 1891.
I can't find his sister, Kate either. Kate married a William Yardley. I have found them in 1901
Ecclesall Bierlow
William Yardley, 40, Carter, Shiregreen Yorkshire
Kate, 33, Birmingham
William L, 12, Sheffield
Grace, 2,  ,,

Would love any help or advice
Jo

Oh thanks for trying to help. I have found Graces birth entry and her brothers William Letby Yardley all in the same area. Just no Richards birth or find them on the census.

They dont appear to be in the same area in 1891. Just tried looking for richard with only his age and birth area to see if surname has been wrongly transcribed but nothing has come up.

One way of looking is to look up another person on the same census page in 1881
Living on the same street in your case Fitzwilliam st.
If they are still living there look through all the names in that section and maybe fingers crossed your family will be there but names spelt wrong

I meant to say find Fitwilliam St on 1891 by looking for some other family who lived near yours.

They are not living on Fitzwilliam st in 1891 just looked. It might be worth looking at other streets in that area though District 13 they may have moved from near by.

I did that actually, found the streets by looking at the enumerators discription. I'll go back and do that again.
Thank you.
By the way I noticed your interest in Stockton, is that the area in the North East? I live close by if it is.
