Hi ADSykes,
Welcome to rootschat. Have you tried looking for your Nutton familyon any censuses yet?
I had a quick look using the search engine on the National archives 1901 census website (
http://www.1901census.nationalarchives.gov.uk/) and this family living in Soothill Upper, Yorks seemed to match the details that you gave:
Charles Nutton 40 b Sowerby bridge, Yorks Coal miners deputy
Faith Nutton 38 b Batley
Beatrice 15 b Batley Woolen weaver
Ellis 11
Ben 3
William 6
Edith 4M (all kids bn Batley)
Using the search engine via
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/census/ the same family seems to be found in Batley in 1891 Rg12 piece 3720
and a possible Charles in 1881 (via same site) is at 19 Wainhouse terrace, Skircoat, Yorks with mother Ellen b. 1830 Ireland who is apparently married but no father is listed and two other siblings
To find the birth cert. of Ben have you tried
http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl ?
Looking quickly perhaps the June 1997 quarter birth:
Nutton Ben Dewsbury 9b 621
is a possibilty?
Hope these are some help.
The complete details of 1881 census you can see at either
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/census/ or
http://www.familysearch.org/but the 1891 and 1901 are so far by subscription /pay per view...or a post here perhaps if some has the census directly
Best Regards
Emily
