1921 Census: Family m embers of Serving Officer in India

[Tony Freeman]

Percy William Freeman (38 years & 10 months) is Squadron Sergeant Major in the "A" Squadron 5th Royal Irish Lancers. He is married and has two children aged 9 and 12 years. He has been in the A Squadron of the 5th Royal Irish Lancers for 19 years and 10 months.
He is serving in India in the 1921 Census with his fellow officers and men.
However, there are no details of his family.
I know that his wife, a school teacher, and son and daughter were in India at the time.

Can anyone advise me where I can locate the Census details for the family in India?

Not what you asked for but found this on Family Search Site. Based on his age in the 1921 (38 years & 10 months) his DoB would be roughly 1882.

Point of interest "Marital Status   Unknown"

Also listed as William Percy Freman not Percy William Freeman. Might help your future search using this variant.

What were the names etc of his wife & children?  Can you tell us what documentation you have that confirms they were also in India at the time of the 1921 census

I recently unearthed a 1921 Indian Census entry - no mention of family even though child was born in the locale at the time. I think you will find the '21 Census didn't extend to "civvies".

Wrong person.
He died in 1965 in York.

I think you are correct in that the families were included in the 1921 Census.
