Hi Can anybody help me locate Henry Shrubsole? According to family information he was born in 1860 in Canterbury Kent. He married an Emily ? and by the 1891 census they had two children by the names of Emily and Molly. I am uncertain as to where and when they were married but I do know that Emily was married in 1905 in Wandsworth, London. Can anyone locate his birth, marriage or even on the census records for me?
Many thanks
BoBo

Before we all get stuck into this, you might like to try 1881 census, plus freeBMD for his birth and marriage , all free to search, as then you will get the thrill yourself of finding things! If you get stuck do ask though.

How did you get on with 1881?
Looking at his occupation, I would say this is a possible for him:
RG 11 1047 56 8
Wadhurst, Sussex
Henry Shrubsole 20 lodger Wood Blocker bn Barham Kent
lodger in a household with lots of other lodgers

In order to help pinpopint the marriage, it might be worth getting a birth cert of a child to see mothers maiden name.
Here (I think) is Agnes's birth -
Jul/Aug/Sep 1886 Wandsworth 1d 661 Agnes Jane Shrubsole
(I wonder if Agnes was known as Molly?)

Hi Lizzi Many thanks for the info. I did look at the 1881 census and fould the same Henry Shrubsole. Looking at his occupation I agree with you that it is the same person. The ages on the 1891 census conform with the date of birth of Emily ( 11/2/1885), so I think the age error was done in the 1901 census. What I don't understand is that my Aunt mentioned 4 sisters Emily 1885, Molly 1890, Queenie 1895 & Jubilee 1897. Could these ladies be the wives of the Henry, John and Albert?

Nor can I see any marriages for the boys to girls of these names.
It would be worth you trying to find the family in 1911, to see if these girls were actually younger sisters.
Can you ask your Aunt for any more? remember that recollections often get people and dates confused over the years.
I see you have an exact d ob for Emily - have you got her birth cert? What info does that show?

My two gorgeous grandsons

The 1911 has a JUBLEE Shrubsole born 1897,the whole family appear to be in Wandsworth,parents look like they might be Emily b 1866 and Henry b 1861.
You would need to pay per view to see the transcript or better still the census image.
I think they may have been nicknames as they do not appear on the marriage indexes.

Hi Carol! Long time no see.
Good find in 1911
I wonder where Jubilee was in 1901? (either as Jubilee or real name, no birth under Jubilee) The family had no 4 yr old, just a gap between Albert 8 and Jane 9 mths.
I will go a-searching!

The nearest female birth I can see is Jessie Kate in 1898 in Epsom .....
There are numerous boys born around 1897 in WAndsworth reg distr, but not girls.
