Sidney Southren

Hi I am researching Sidney Southren who was my step grandfather. He died in around 1974 and was married to Phylis. Any other leads - birth siblings etc would be appreciated.

Thank you

His death in 1974 (Hertfordshire) gave his birthdate as 14th March 1905.

So, this looks like his birth:

September qtr 1905
Sunderland district    vol 10a, page 714

Southren, Sidney

We aren't allowed to divulge info from the 1911 census - you need to get that yourself on one of the pay sites.

I think this may be Sidney's family, on the 1901 census:
Reference RG13, Piece 4717, Folio 76, Page 11
36 Thomas Street, Ryhope, Sunderland

Southren, James  Head  M  33  Steam Engine Maker  b Sunderland
Southren, Ann  Wife  F  25  b Sunderland
Southren, Samuel B  Son  M  2  b Sunderland
Southren, Thomas C  Son  M  1  b Sunderland
Southren, Kate A  Daughter  F  3 months  b Ryhope

And the births (all Sunderland district):
September qtr 1898  Southren, Samuel Barkes    vol 10a, page 719
December qtr 1899  Southren, Thomas Cansfield    vol 10a, page 714
March qtr 1901  Southren, Kate Adelaide    vol 10a, page 684
June qtr 1905  Southren, Sidney    vol 10a, page 796

And the following look like they might be worth looking at:
March qtr 1903, Southren, Lees Cansfield
March qtr 1907, Southren, Charlotte C
June qtr 1910, Southren, Sarah Cansfield

And a marriage:
March qtr 1897
Sunderland district    vol 10a, page 880
