Looking for a Jones Boy
« on: Friday 06 September 24 02:07 BST (UK) »
I have a Jones Family from the 1921 census, please see the attachment, It is the son of William Thomas Jones (born Staffordshire 1879) and Clara Jones (nee Talbot born Staffordshire 1881).
They resided in Staffordshire at 7 Castle Street Chesterton.
The transcription lists him a Auther but it could be Luther.
I can't find a birth record, the closest i can find is a W L T Jones with mother a Talbot.
Can i have some opinions on this young lad.
Thank you

It looks like "Auther" - perhaps a mis-spelled Arthur. If he was 5 and 9 months in June 1921, he was born in Sept 1915.

Is this a possibilty?

Neale,
Thank you for checking. Yes it could be. I never thought of checking of checking for a miss spelt mother.
I will have a look.

Neale, I think you've nailed it.
I'll go with Arthur Harold Jones.
Excellent work!
Thank you
