1891 Census - Harry Wilkinson lookup
« on: Thursday 27 November 08 15:53 GMT (UK) »
Hey guys,

im having trouble locating my great grandad in 1891. And was wondering if you could help me out.

Harry Wilkinson b.1879 Wolverhampton

He should be with his father and brother ( his mother died in 1885, and i have found his sister living with the grandmother in '91)

His father and brother are :

Elias Wilkinson 1854 Wolverhampton ( poss still Tin plate worker )
Elias Wilkinson 1877 Wolverhampton

Cheers guys, its driving me mad.

Hey Jacques,

thankyou for you time and reply.

I do have all that yes. But thankyou very much, as i might not have had it. :) I wasnt sure about the death, but i supposed it had to be him.

I did find Harry Wilkinson in 1901 in West Brom, although it says he was born 1870, but on the actual census page itself it has the right age. So a transcribe mistake.

Its really bugging to know where they was in 1891.

Their Sister Nellie wilkinson b.1876, is with their gran 1891 Jane Roberts. So god knows what happened there.

Thanks
Gary
