1911 Census Help Needed.
« on: Friday 12 January 18 20:59 GMT (UK) »
Hi All
I am having serious problems trying to find certain individuals in the 1911 Census.
Here goes...
I have an Edward and Kate Dowd in the 1901 Census in Derby.
There is also -Charlotte, Mary Ellen,Maria,James,Margaret,Elizabeth,Martin and George..

1911 Census-I have Edward and Martin only.....James was in the army,Maria was married,as was Mary Ellen.

I am trying to find Kate (Catherine/Katherine),Elizabeth,Charlotte (prob married) and George.
Kate died in 1926,Elizabeth and George-no idea.

George is also a mystery as I cannot find his B/M/D Record at all.In fact the only mention of him is the 1901 Census.

I have exhausted all of my info to no avail,so I am counting on you good and great people again!

Unfortunately, we cannot do look ups for the 1911 census due to copyright restrictions.

Have you checked that she isn't with any other members of the family?

To help in the search:
1901 census
Edward Dowd, head, 58, general labourer b Derby
Catherine, wife, 47, b Birmingham
Maria Dowd, daughter, 18, b Lincoln
George Dowd, son, 13, b Derby
James Dowd, son, 11, b Derby
Elizabeth Dowd, daughter, 4, b Derby
Martin Dowd, son, 1, b Derby

?possible - Jun qtr 1884 Lincoln vol 7a p1077 Edward DOWD and Kate FORD on same page
The FORD surname matches births for Elizabeth and Martin, but I can't match it to the earlier children.
Please help me to help you by citing sources for information.

James is under DOUD, Charlotte and Maria were born before the marriage year.

There is a family tree on Ancestry which claims that this is Charlotte here in 1911, married to Arthur OSCROFT.
