Hi, I've emailed the Archivist for The Sacred Heart College, Wandsworth but appreciate its a bit of a long shot as I now understand that there're were quite a few Colleges like this 100 years ago I didn't realise that you weren't allowed to search 1911 Census, but are earlier ones ok?
If only I knew the whereabouts of Richard Gardner Down c1905, I'd obviously have a better idea of Winifred's Birth location :/ I'm in touch with a fellow Ancestry Member who is also researching the Sewell Family and we will be looking  at Birth Certificates of his many Children to try and get a better understanding.I was really pleased with the info the 2 I've already purchased gave me. It's a costly business  all this to try and find out who my GGrandma was!

Hi

Just to clarify the England & Wales 1911 census policy for you.

If you, the originator of a topic, start a post and have looked at the 1911 census, you can mention what you have found out. You are looking for your family and have used your subscription for your own research.

What is not allowed is the posting of look-up requests when you do not have a subscription as you are then asking people to break the terms and conditions of those subscription sites which generally do not allow look-up that are not related to your family.

Rootschatters can only mention search results that are available from the free indexes these sites have.

Unlike the previous censuses which are available in multiple formats, the 1911 census is still only available online through subscription sites who have clearly defined user policies.

Hope this helps

Dawn

Ah, yes it does! Thank you Dawn, I understand now

Have received Death Certificate for Ethel Blanche Clements and am 95% sure that she is my Lady and so the Mother of Winifred Ethel. Her Death was 7/02/1924 at 46 Ouseley Rd Balham, which I've found out was part of St. James' Hospital and once a Workhouse so carried a stigma which is why 46 Ouseley Rd was used rather than Hospital. She died of Carcinoma Uteri (Ovarian Cancer) aged 38. Her address at the time was 89 Bennerley Rd, Battersea Rd and I'm sure ive seen this address on my searches but can't remember where! This is very close to where Winifred was living at the time of her Marriage (Battersea Rise) all too good to be coincidental! Will this help me find Birth Record for Winifred?! I hope so! Think I've found a possible sighting for Ethel on 1901 Census, but nothing on 1911 :/ onward onward...

That does sound like a useful development - will have a look back at the thread to refresh memory.

NB Carcinoma uteri is uterine cancer rather than ovarian cancer.

Added: what was Ethel's marital status/occupation according to the death certificate?

[Dianeduvale]

Yes, thanks, maybe £9.25 well spent!

Sorry - I amended to add a question to my last post 

Added: what was Ethel's marital status/occupation according to the death certificate?

And another question - which is the 1901 census entry you have provisionally identified for Ethel? 

[Dianeduvale]

She's listed as a Spinster and occupation is Canvasser for a Newspaper. On 1901 Census, address is 111 Ivydale Rd, Camberwell, Parents Harry P and Ellen S, BUT year of Birth is 1888, she was 13 so not sure if this is her.
