Bannister/scriven, Shropshire
« on: Monday 25 July 05 14:27 BST (UK) »
Hi there,
Can some kind soul possibly help with any info on this family ?
Robert Bannister was born in Leominster and married Alveley born Catherine Scriven during the 1870's.
The 1881 census records them living with  family at Cookscross Alveley, Shropshire  -

Robert BANNISTER   M   Male   34   born Leominster   Shopman Provision Hand 
Catherine BANNISTER   M   Female   24   Alveley,   Shopmans Wife 
two children -
 Robert J. BANNISTER      Male   5   born Birmingham   
 Fanny E. BANNISTER      Female   2   born Birmingham 

But then they seem to "disappear" for a few years ( they are not on the Alveley census of 1891 or 1901 )
But  daughter Fanny "reappears" in 1897 in the Parish Church Registers -
BANNISTER FANNY, aged 18-daughter of Robert Bannsiter married John Harvey Stant (aged 24- Bricklayer)  13th April 1897.
Any help or  info on any of the family much appreciated
kindest regards

Many thanks to both of you for your very quick responses.
The puzzle continues ! I wonder what happened to Catherine and Robert - can't find them anywhere  in the 1901 census ! Anyone with "stronger glasses" wish to take up the challenge  ?? ??? ??? ??? ???
Any help or advise much appreciated

In 1891 Fanny lived at 49 The Village with her Scriven grandparents. She is 12.

Interstingly, a Henry France lived next door at no 50...and as Robert James Bannister married a France (m. Agnes Louisa, daughter of John and Mary Ann France), is there a connection????

Any specific questions for me???
