The problem with street directories as they list the head of the household, usually a man.

I had seen that 1911 census entry but had dismissed it due to the place of birth. I hadn't heard of Rowton Houses (very interesting reading). Sadly, it's the sort pf place I would expect him to be. With so many residents it would be easy to make a mistake on an entry.
The WWI enlistment record with no address would make sense if he was homeless.
But who knows?

Walter NELSON is a fairly common name but he was not given a middle name when he was baptised.

I need to find a likely candidate in the 1921 census and a possible death.
