1911 census -Harris Family
« on: Monday 13 October 14 12:55 BST (UK) »
Hi all,

This is a weird request because I seem to have so much info on this family but can't find most of them in 1911 census.
Info -Peter Richard and Sarah Harris who I have found in 1911 census had eleven children all born colchester. To date I have found none in 1911. Here are some of them with info I have:-
Herbert Charles born 1892 married 28/2/1917 in Toronto Canada.
Alfred Walter born 29/8/1888 married Ethel Cockrell at St Leonards church, Colchester 15/1/1912
Albert Edward  born 27/4/1887 married Ethel T Faiers 13/4/1911

With that info they should be easy to find but I am having a nightmare ???

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Terry
Looking for Dadds, Wheeler, Seymour, Hammond & Reynolds to name but a few.

If we can find them, we aren't allowed to give you any information as the 1911 census is covered by copyright laws! :(

Sorry!

Isabella Minnie married Frederick Walter Firmin/Formin  1907. You should be able to find them in 1911 and you may find someone else.

Alice S T  Harris m 1902 Colchester Horsfield or Pressnell so worth searching with either of these names if you haven't already done so.

Will post this information in case you do not have it and to correct info an ancestry tree that says Herbert Charles Harris died in Colchester in 1959  ???

Death certificate for Herbert Charles Harris - 26/4/1987 Vancouver British Columbia.
Informant is a daughter - same daughter mentioned on the death cert for Ethel Harris in 1983.

Do you have Herbert's date of arrival in Canada ? There is a possible in 1911 , before the date of the 1911 census , which you may already have ruled out.

I think you meant Emma Faiers , not Ethel. They married in Canada too. According to the 1921 Canada census Alfred arrived in Canada in 1909. They are in Windsor , Ontario in 1921.
