Think he was in Kettering, Northamptonshire in 1891. Bricklayer, single, Lodger. Walter Warry age 27 born Leicestershire. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:4L7S-HMM

Thanks Ray, I'll look into this over the weekend.

Cheers

Thanks JenB, obviously you have a certain nack with names!

I've just looked on Google maps and there's virtually nothing there at all now.

It seems such an unlikely move from there to Blaby but he did it. One of the reasons for trying to find him as he moved there through the years!

Thanks again

Ian

The obvious thing is to order his birth certificate, you can get a pdf copy for £7, you have the reference. His mother’s surname was VINCENT

But how is that going to help locate him in 1881 and 1891, which is the purpose of the enquiry?

I was totally unaware that you can get a PDF certificate for £7, a bit like the old days, so thanks for that!

I have decided to order his birth certificate which should tie down where he was born at least.

It may help with the search but probably not.

I remember checking various army sites with no luck so the only thing I can think of now is a mis-transcription etc

In the 1911 Census he gives pob as Centerford and I think that is what is on the 1921 Census spelt Sentifa.

Thanks, that seems to have legs although I can't find a Centerford either!

Oh well, back to the drawing board

Thanks All

Hi JenB

Basically, yes.

Due to work commitments etc a few years ago, I had to stop building the tree.

William was one of my brick walls at the time having tried allsorts of ideas. He eventually turned up in the 1901
in Narborough, Leics having married in Blaby in 1892.

I wondered if he was in the army or something but couldn't find him.

I was trying to use the new birth place in new searches rather than putting on members to search. However, if anyone had any ideas I'd be very grateful!

Good evening

Today I am returning to genealogy for the first time in a few years and have decided to look at the 1921 Census as a starting point.

Already I have come up with a question which I wonder if anyone could assist with. The person in question has written his place of birth but I can't work it out. I've tried lots of different possibilities to no avail. Other census from different years suggest he was born in Crewkerne or Broadwindsor. He disappears in the 18881 and 1891 so I was trying to find him via the 1921 using the new place of birth.

For info he was William Walter Warry b1858 ish.

I am attaching a copy of the entry below.

Thanks for any help

Regards

Hi

I know EYFHS have now published their epic work of recording the Northern Cemetery MI's.

Just wondered if anyone is able to check if there is an entry for either Henry Taylor d6 March 1950 or Kathleen Taylor died 2nd quarter 1981?

If not, no worries, I'll check the next time I'm up in Hull.

Regards

Ian
