Hi Mjac

William won't be on the 1901 Census, since he was born after it was taken.

As you have the 1911 Census details, and his birth record - are there enough details on those documents to confirm the 1901 Census I posted above is the correct family (the only likely looking family I could see in Orphir)? Particulary the Census - you'd be looking to see any/all the children from 1901 are on the the 1911.

Cheers
