1891 lookup - TRACE
« on: Monday 03 January 05 14:58 GMT (UK) »
Could SKS please lookup Alfred Charles TRACE b 1879 somewhere in Devon!

The above information came form a family bible, but I have not been able to find him on either 1881 or 1901 census, so I am beginning to doubt the validity of the bible

Your help is much appreciated.

Perhaps the given date is incorrect. A Trace family appears on the 1891 census - see if they match any of yours apart from Alfred:

Thanks a lot. Could be promising.

I don't know much about him though. All I know is that in 1945 he was working for Plymouth Council (according to his sons marriage certificate).

Not much I know!
