Harrison Blades
« on: Wednesday 19 July 06 17:56 BST (UK) »
Is anybody researching the above? I have located this person with his family on the 1881,1891 & 1901 census. My husbands grandfather was a nurse child with this family in 1901 and I am hoping to find some more information about this family and Percy Simpkin who was the nurse child. I would welcome any information. Many thanks

Firstly I'd suggest that you record the information that you have (for everyone to see) rather than "I've already got this". The more that you share, the more may be revealed.

Sofor each census:

Address,census ref(s)

Name , age, birthplace (occupation/relationship) for EACH AND EVERY person

High street
Robert Blades head mar 28 machine maker      b.Yorkshire ?? Herdswell
Ann Blades     wife   mar 26                             b. do              Wetherby
Rachael Ann   daur           7 scholar                 b.    do               do
Harrison          son            5    do                     b.    do               do

John Hawley     apprentice  18  machine maker  b.      do         Cawood

If I have the correct chap it looks like he married Emma Pallister
in 1878
quarter Apr May June
Bradford West Riding Yorkshire
9b 71
following emma through the census Father Jonathan a common carrier and mother Ann seems a good possibility but you would need marriage cert to be sure..

Cannot find a family connection with little percy but there may not of course be one.Have you got Percys fathers name as there might be an in law connection .
