WILLIAM JORDAN PRICE

[carolthomasburns]

I have been going through some of my brick walls and this one is one of my thickest walls

William Jordan Price was born about 1900 in Liverpool to Thomas Price 1868 Liverpool and Mary Ann Stanley 1864 St Helens, He appears in the 1901 census with his parents but by 1911 Mary Ann is with Peter Edward Thomas and his children at 64 HAREWOOD STREET EVERTON . William Jordan is still named Price but Mary and Peter have stated that they have been married for 20 years with 5 children --- William being one of them. In 1901 Peter is married to Alice so definitely not correct there,
The main one I am looking for is William Jordan Price .... I cant even find a birth for him never mind a marriage or death and with a name like Jordan I would have thought it would have been a bit easier
Any help would be appreciated

Forgive me, but if you can't find a birth/marriage/death for a William Jordan Price how do you know where he was born, his middle name and who his parents were?

I have the census for 1901 and 1911 Annette and that is where the name, birth year and place of birth came from

Hi,

Have you checked the image for 1911 or just  the transcription?

Ive checked the image for both and even printed them out so I can really study them

[nanny jan]

Have you checked his description on both 1901/1911......do they both say  "son"?

[carolthomasburns]

on 1901 it states son 7mths
on 1911 where he is with his mother and stepfather it states adopted son aged 10

Hi

Welcome to rootschat 

The 1901 does not give a middle name for him, it may have been added later. Mary has been described as Mary A.

Wasn't reading it properly     See later posts

I'm just wondering why there's no ditto after his name in 1901 to indicate he has the Price surname.

I wonder if he was just born as William JORDAN?
