1901 Census for Violet May Curran and Gladys Mary Curran

[Malcolm33]

Thank you so much Groom.    Maurice wouldn't have been all that far from the other Curran's then.  Marion Street is in bottom left of google map and whilst I haven't found Rhys Street it was in Llwynypia Parish which must have extended down to right hand side of map - e.g. Llwynypia Road. - https://www.google.com.au/maps/@51.6288226,-3.4668955,15z

  I need to ask for more help in an attempt to identify the link between Wickens and the Curran family.

  When trying Ukcensus on line for Wickens residing in Glamorgan in 1841 nothing comes up.   But in 1851 they have a James Wickens, Solicitor,born London in 1818.   There is also a 4 year old Rosanna Wickins aged 4 born Bristol.    She doesn't appear at all in Family Search for the 1851 census, but they have James Wickens down as a Boarder in their summary and as a Guest of the householder in their detailed results.

    What would help would be the address that James was staying at in Glamorgan in 1851.  Could you please help again, Groom?

     I have tracked James down in later years and it seems he moved about the country a great deal.   He shows up in 1871 in London with three Sisters (apparently all single) and no less than Seven Servants!   Summary of articles and notices in British Newspaper Archives give his address as 1 Chandos Street, Cavendish Square and looks like he was doing a lot more than being just a solicitor - real estate and shipping freight according to the advertisements.

He was a guest in a hotel  - Parade Castle Hotel, Neath, Glamorganshire. Occupation solicitor and place of birth London, Middlesex.

There is also a 4 year old Rosanna Wickins aged 4 born Bristol.

I can't see her anywhere.

Thank you Groom.     So he was in Neath and that rings a bell.   Back to the drawing board, someone I've spotted in this search was in Neath.

There is also a 4 year old Rosanna Wickins aged 4 born Bristol.

I can't see her anywhere.

   Thanks for checking her out too.    I often see discrepancies between Fam Search and UkCensusonline and one wonders at times.

[groom]

There isn't a birth registration for her as far as I can see either.

Hi Nena, you really need to start a new topic of your own as it doesn't look as if this is the same family. Give as much information as you can so that people can help.
