1911 Census Runcorn
« on: Tuesday 05 October 10 08:48 BST (UK) »
I would be so grateful if anyone is able to lookup the following ancestor of mine in Runcorn in 1911:

Ann Wilkinson aged in her 80's - probably 84 or 85.  She was born in Eddisbury - in earlier census returns birthplace is recorded as Delamere where she was baptised.

It is possible she may have been living with a daughter called Eliza, but not sure on that.

Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

We are not allowed to do 1911 lookups on here unfortunately  :(

See this link

The 1911 index is free to search.

gives lots of tips for searching the census.

Have you checked freebmd for deaths? There is a death in 1907 of Ann Wilkinson age 86 in Runcorn

Is your Ann Wilkinson the one who was living on own means in Alpraham Parish, Cheshire in 1901? It says born Dolamere (sic) and age 80 so the death in 1907 is a possible match.

Thanks so much for reply.  Yes the Ann Wilkinson in Alpraham 1901 is my ancestor.  I am looking for her in 1911 to find out where she died.  I have two incorrect death certificates already!   I believe she had a brother in Runcorn and thought she might have died there.

I will search the 1911 index as you kindly suggest.

Thanks again.
