Hi

This might be a possible:

I'm afraid that we can't give any more info from the 1911 census, only what's available on the free indexes.

The James Fergusson I am looking for was born in the Sandon district Staffordshire,
in the 1871 census he is with his family in Wales at St Asaph, Abergele, Bettws Yn Rhos, Maesewig, Denbighshire.
Bit of a mouth full.
Details given are at age 14 he is listed under occupation as an "Engineer" what type or where is not defined but he is probably in an Apprenticeship of some sort.
By 1881 census his father has died and the rest of the family with the mother have moved back to Staffordshire.
he is now 24 and no where in sight.
the Newtown James does not now appear to fit as he is born in Scotland.
I can account for the rest of the family but not James.
Maybe some one out there knows my James.

thanks for all the replies sorry I left out some of the details.

Given there's one the right age in Newtown in 1911, but b Scotland so probably not yours, are you certain it isn't that one who dies in 1921?
