1901 census look up please
« on: Saturday 14 November 09 18:28 GMT (UK) »
I wonder if anyone would be kind enough to look up a Stephen Dowdy born 1896.

 I have looked at the free part of the census and have him age 4 born Sussex Wildhams Wood but would love to know what his parents names and ages  are.  There should be at least one other child Nora or Norah birth about 1900.

I hope someone can help, thank you.
