1911 Census - Miriam Dawber
« on: Friday 11 May 12 18:56 BST (UK) »
I am looking for Miriam Dawber born in Wigan 1892 in the 1911 census
She was the daughter of Thomas (b1865 Wigan) and Margaret (b1869 Ince) Dawber
At the time of her marriage, in October 1911, she was living at 31 Platt Lane, Wigan
I have searched on Ancestry and a Miriam Dawber b1896 comes up, although in Wigan, her parents are Thomas and Alice Jane Dawber.
I have tried different spellings of Dawber, but cannot find Miriam.
Can anyone help please?

What year did her parents get wed?
The census is searchable for free this weekend.

Her parents married in 1890 at St Catherines Wigan

Thanks for the clarification on 1911 lookups, I suppose I am not really asking for a lookup, more asking if anyone else can find them.
If they can, and can tell me how they found them, then I can do the lookup myself
Is that OK

Ancestry now has the 1911 Census records and Family Search has an index. I know Ancestry don't have a problem with look-ups this rule might need looking at by Rootschat as FindMyPast are no longer the only site with 1911 records.

Both Ancestry and FindMyPast show the Miriam born in 1896, not the Miriam born in 1892
Unusual that both are (maybe) incorrectly transcribed??

Although I have her birth record and marriage certificate
