Uncertainty on father's birthplace in 1911 census
« on: Sunday 16 April 17 18:30 BST (UK) »
Hi, I wonder if anyone might be able to help me - the head of the family in the census return I am looking at has father's birthplace as what looks like UK, but I am very certain his father was actually born in France, on the Cote d'Armor. Am I reading the census return incorrectly, or does it indeed say UK? (The family in the return are in Jersey, C.I.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Laura
