Census and Resource Discussion / 1921 Query
« on: Monday 25 March 24 06:33 GMT (UK) »
I have found a 6 year old child living with her "adoptive" parents in the 1921 census. She is enumerated as being the couple's daughter, with their surname but her middle name is the surname of her biological mother - could this indicate that the "adoptive" parents knew the biological mother of the child? or maybe there is another explanation?
Also, the child is enumerated as parents both alive. Would this mean that both the biological parents are alive or that both the "adoptive" parents are alive?

William Edward Rae b. 1881 Rushen, IOM - Parents: William Rae and Isabella Cannell of Sea Mount Port St, Mary, IOM.
William enlisted in the British Army, King's Liverpool Regiment 1/10th (Scottish) Battalion in WW1. He served in France and Belgium - his battalion were sent to the trenches in November 1914 where he was badly wounded - he died of his wounds in Royal Southern Hospital, Liverpool, Lancashire, England on 2 September, 1920, a few months after discharge from the Army. He was buried at Kirk Christ Church Cemetery, Port Erin, Rushen, IOM.
I have birth/death/burial/baptism/details and there is a photo of him in his military uniform posted on Find My Grave site.
I wanted to see if their were any other photos of him or letters to home from the frontline - anything at all really.
