finding Percy 1891 and 1901
« on: Wednesday 30 January 13 08:49 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
    I have Percy Watson b.1884 in Arnold,Notts.
    He died 1922 in Arnold.
    He married Hannah Noble and I have them on 1911 census living at Mansfield Woodhouse, Notts.
    I can't find him on 1891 or 1901 census........any ideas?
    I don't know why he died in Arnold as the rest of his family were still in Mansfield Woodhouse,    but we do know this is correct.
                                              thanks......bigjon

Hi bigjon.... :)

I think this might be the family in 1891 and transcribed as Walson.

1891 = RG12/ Piece2676/ Folio 33/Page 14 - Spout Lane, Arnold.

If you need all the details let me know.

Transcribed again as Walson but Percy is not with them...... will have another look  :'(

1901 - RG13/Piece3158/ Folio 114/ Page 40 - Spout Lane Arnold


There is a Harry aged 16 with the family who wasn't listed on the 1891 with them and I am wondering if this is actually Percy and the enumerator got his name wrong?
