Where is Florence Beatrice Thomas and family pre-1911???
« on: Tuesday 25 November 14 09:11 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

Can anyone  help me locate Florence Beatrice Thomas and her family on the available census returns please?

She was born on the 22nd April 1883 in 4 Tattersall Place, Bootle, Lancashire to parents Robert Hughes and Mary Ellen Thomas (nee Peva) and was baptised at St. Peter, Liverpool on the 21 May 1883. Both the birth certificate and baptism record state that Robert was a Joiner by trade.

Robert and Mary Ellen appear to have married in 1881, by virtue of a matching marriage (Registrar in attendance so presuming Catholic).

They had a daughter Elizabeth Ann, baptised at St. Peter, Liverpool on 22 April 1882 (born 21 March) and a daughter Minnie Louisa, also born in Tattersall Place, Bootle on the 23 April 1887.

Florence married Alexander McAdam at St. Mary, Kirkdale in 1907, and was residing in 28 Hector Street, Kirkdale by the time of the 1911 Census with Alexander and their two children Florence Christina and Ann Jane, with the census stating she was from ‘Bootle, Lancs’ [Source Ref: Class: RG14; Piece: 22481]

Working back from here I can find no obvious trace of them and would be very grateful for any assistance please!

Surely, if she was born 1883, and her parents married in 1881, she would have been a Hughes?
