Title: 1891/1901 census - Luton
Post by: delta on Saturday 17 May 08 13:05 BST (UK)
Would someone be so kind as to find William and Alice Janes for me please?  They were married 1884, and Alice born 1863 Luton.  Daughter Minnie born late 1895.  Would like to see if they had more children and William's details also please.

Thank you so much, all three of you.  Definitely the right family because Louisa Sheldrake was Alice's younger sister who married Alfred Austin Warren in 1899.  Their mother had died in 1883 so possibly why Louisa was with Alice.
I just jumped to the wrong conclusion about Minnie because her middle name was Wooler and so was Williams - it shows it's best to double check.
I am so grateful for your help.  :)

I realise this thread is a few years old but we recently moved into a house in Luton which was built by Frederick Charles Wooler Janes and given to William Wooler Janes. It was later owned by Eva Alice Janes and her husband Sidney Wright, both of whom died here.

We have original deeds and a few other documents, including details of other properties they owned.

Thought I'd add it here just in case anyone else stumbles across this post when looking for information about the Janes family, just like I did. Happy to share information or document scans if anyone is interested.

Hello rachwarwick,

Welcome to RootsChat.

We have just heard back today from Delta's husband to say that sadly she has died.

Regards
