Looking for Walter Homer and family in the Quarry Bank area in the 1891 census. Walter was born in 1884 in Quarry Bank so would be aged six or seven in 1891. I have no details of parents.
Any details would be most welcome. Al

1901 Walter's father's name looks like Handel or Randel (Walter age 16 )
but
1901 there is also a Walter Homer b Quarry bank age 17 parents Benjamin and Ann
Difficult to know which one is yours? ??

Thank you for all those replies, bit of a puzzler with all those Walters but I know he worked as a coalminer and left the area to do that at Bedworth, Warwickshire after 1910 so that may be the clue to deciding which is which.

Suzard, forgot to answer your query, Walter's Grandson provided the details and he got them off his Aunt who is Walter's brother's daughter!!
I will get him to ask her for her father's name which will probably provide the answer.
Thank you all again for your help, it is very much appreciated.

P.S. The name head of one of the families is HANDEL Homer, he is there in the 1881 at Quarry Bank.

Just confirmed that Handel's family is the right one so thank you all.
Shadrack's family from previous censuses anyone?
