I am looking for any information in the 1891 and 1901 census records for Henry Dixon Weston born abt. 1832 in St. Margarets, Leicester. In the 1881 census he was married to Eliza and his occupation was listed as Master Framework Knitter living on Russell Street. Henry & Eliza had ten children: Sophia, Mary Anne, Charlotte, Henry, Jemima, James, John, Florence, William and Arthur all born between 1852 and 1876. Any information in the census records would be appreciated. Thank you.

HI
After seeing James in 1861 I have had another look at the 1871. No sign of that James but at No 65 is James Weston 59 with wife Sophia 59 and Grandson Henry aged 10.
Sorry I missed it first time.
