there is a Shadrach Lewis born circa 1887 in Newport Monmouthshire on the 1911 census doing the household search other lewis were Ann b. 1856
Florence M b. 1909 Glyn Mozart b. 1910 & Susannah b. 1890
so this Shadrach Lewis looks to be married to Susannah with and with 2 children i don't think he is yours though as firstly yours is a Williams and secondly how does Ann fit in ?

Are you using this site & the advanced search?

http://www.1911census.co.uk/

There's only one Shadrach + variants Williams born 1896+/-. If you then search again with only the surname using the county & registration district  found in the first search with Shadrach's name as spelt in the previous result in the 'other members of the household' box, it will show the other members of the family.

You will recognise them!

 ;D Hy Osprey    just followed your instructions, and came up with the correct family. I would like to thank you very much for all your help in this search.  I  will  try to find the rest of the family as I now have a bit of an idea where they might have been living from census.     So will keep searching for Gladys and Gwendoline maybe names were spelt differently!!    very kind regards    Romangirl.
