My great great Grandfather was William Edward Storr who was born in Sinnington in 1868 to a William and Ann Storr. By the time of the 1881 census he is listed as living in Ripon with an Ann who is listed as his step mother and her daughter with the surname Arnott. His father William Storr is not resident at the address yet this new(?) Ann is still considered to be married, so I assum William Storr was still alive at the time. Where could he be? Military service, working away, in prison or something else? And is the 1881 Ann Storr the same as the 1868 Ann Storr (they can't be)
I have managed to trace the Storr family of Sinnington all the way back to the 1700's there is only one Storr family in Sinnington so it is pretty much a given that they are my ancestors... the one thing I am missing is William Edward Storr's father. I know HE was called William Storr, from Sinnington, who appears to have been married to two women both called Ann... but apart from that I am clueless.
Can anybody please help?

Hi SudsOne
Welcome to Rootschat! I hope you will find the site helpful and friendly. 
You don't say which census returns you have for your family? Have you looked for marriages for William, maybe on freebmd? These might give you information about his parents as well as Ann (or Anns) maiden names. Similarly you can get birth cert info for Wm younger which, if purchased, would give his mother's maiden name and possible deaths for Wm senior.
I'd be happy to look up earlier/ later censuses if you need them.
kind regards, Arranroots

Thankyou very much for getting back to me so quick... The only resources I have used are the Yorkshire BDM site, The LDS family search site and the 1901 census.
The one I have trying to find but have had no success with is the 1871 census for Sinnington. Which should show an infant William Edward Storr living with his father and mother and other details like his father's date of birth which would determine from which offshoot of the Sinnington Storr's he blonged to.
Would be delighted if you'd look that info up for me.
William Edward Storr or Stoor, born in 1868 in Sinnington... father William Storr and mother Ann?
Thankyou.

Fantastic! Thank you ever so much. I think I now know which of the three William Storr's (all cousins) and from the same generation, that my great great Grandfather belongs to. There's only one it could possibly be... a William Storr born in 1834 in Sinnington. Still a mystery why he doesn't show up in the 1881 census? But I guess that's part of the fun of researching your family tree.
Again thank you so much.

Doh! Must have missed that one... well that proves he did re-marry. What a tangled web, haha. Wonder where he got to then when the 1881 census came around?

I believe he is lodging in Hull.
William STORR lodg Un (!) 45 - looks like Sailor tailor (!!!) - Pickering
Could be that his occupation is crossed out and then rewritten, but he is lodging with dock labourers. Family name of BAINES, Henry and wife Jane.
Address: 72 Pease St, Hull

Thanks again! So it does mention some form of Tailor? Because that would be conclusive enough for me... i.e. William Edwards Storrs dad.
Cheers.

The George Storr who lived next door to William, is indeed related, it's his brother! The same person is listed in the 1881 census as living in Scarborough as a Furniture Dealer... family members match and everything. Wow thanks so much for you help... really starting to get somewhere now.

Hi
I was interested in your messages about the Storr family of Sinnington.
My Ann Easton married a George Storr in 1848 and they lived at Sinnington and I was wondering if they were part of the same family as yours? Haven't much detail at the moment as have just made the connection, but this George Storr was born about 1803.
Here's hoping
Jayne
