Can't find them in the 1911 Census but I know where they lived !
« on: Saturday 05 May 12 15:44 BST (UK) »
Would appreciate help in finding my g/Father in the 1911 Census.
the name is WILIAMS and I know they lived in the County of BRISTOL and STAPLETON WARD. The address was 13 Glouester Avenue. Other members of the family were MAY WILLIAMS, GEORGE WILLIAMS and KATE DOROTHY (or DOROTHY KATE).

I don't understand whyI can't find them when searching !!

Regards  Jeff W.

I'm sorry, but requests for look-ups in this census are not allowed on RootsChat.

However, there are plenty of suggestions and advice on this thread:

Remember if you are using Ancestry, the complete census is not yet online.  FindMyPast, GR and the official 1911 site do have the complete census for England & Wales.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
