Hi, did you find your Grandfather in the census? Just curious because I live in the area and there is still a number 36 Saltisford, I'm pretty certain it's the same building as in 1911, it is a nice late Victorian/early Edwardian terrace :)

Hi,
Yes, I did find him with the help of a very kind person on here. My family name is Law but on the 1911 census site and find my past, his name was wrongly transcribed as San and Lam. His occupation was gardener the same as the certificates that I have so I knew it was the correct person, this has taken such a long time to find!
I found the house on google earth and had a good look at it on streetview. I have been wondering if he may have worked at warwick castle as he was apparently a professional gardener until he died.

Hi Lorraine - did you ever find him on any census before 1911?

Hi,
Yes, I found him on 1881, 1891 and 1901, he just seemed to go awol until he married my gran, thats when I heard that he married before and found his first marriage certificate that said he married in Warwick in 1911.
(sorry, al ot of 'marrieds in there!)

Brilliant - he must be the Frederick H (enry?) - son of Henry/Harry.

I was worried there might be signs of an yet another earlier marriage on the 1901 census !

Regards Derek

Hi,
Yes, that is certainly him! I have got certificates to prove this so I know I have the right person. My next mission is to find out where he worked and what he was doing before 1911, probably the next few years may bear fruit???? Thank you for your interest.
