« on: Saturday 11 March 06 13:58 GMT (UK) »

Hi,
Does anyone have any information about the parents of Thomas James Whitford, born in Falmouth in the first quarter of 1891, I've hit a dead end!
  Many Thanks. Paul.  Smiley

It would appear daughter Beatrice was enumerated twice on the 1891 census. Once with her parents and once very conveniently with her grandmother where she probably stayed the night.

1891 census RG12 1834 folio 31
3 Bakehouse Yard Falmouth  Cornwall  
Elizabeth A Matthews 54 Wendron, Cornwall,  Head  Widow
Mary E Franklin 23 Constantine, Cornwall, Daughter  Married Charwoman
William Hy Franklin 4 Falmouth, Cornwall, Grandson
Joseph J Matthews 17 Constantine, Cornwall, Son general Labourer
Beatrice A Whitford 12 Falmouth, Cornwall, Granddaughter  

1881 census RG11 2317 folio 86
12 New Buildings, Budock, Cornwall
Elizabeth Matthews 43  Constantine, Cornwall, Head Widow Labourer's widow
Elizabeth Ann Matthews 26  Constantine, Cornwall, Daughter Unmarried Laundress
Lavinia Matthews 20  Constantine, Cornwall,  Daughter  Domestic servant
William J. Matthews 15 Constantine, Cornwall, Son Labourer
Henry James Matthews 11 Constantine, Cornwall, Son  
Joseph Jas. Matthews 7 Constantine, Cornwall, Son  
Beatrice Matthews 2 Constantine, Cornwall Granddaughter
Celia Jane  Matthews 2  Falmouth, Cornwall Granddaughter  
Ann James Matthews 3 mths  Falmouth, Cornwall Granddaughter  

They got there in the end

Marriages Sep 1883
Mathews  Elizabeth Ann     Falmouth  5c 261  
WHITFORD  James     Falmouth  5c 261

You will need the details of the marriage and James' father to be certain when tracking him on earlier censuses as it looks like on the 1881 and the 1901 censuses he was at sea. They would have been useful censuses to confirm that the details of the 1891 census are correct.
