Missing Sisters in 1911 Census

[jibba]

I'm trying to find where two sister were living during the 1911 census. They are Elsie Jacobs (b.1894 at Riverhead) and Gladys Jacobs (b.1902 at Faversham).

I've managed to locate their parents who were living apart by then, the father alone in Deal and the mother living in Faversham with her second husband and all but one son of her sons. The remaining siblings not living with the mother have been accounted for, apart from Elsie and Gladys who would have been aged 17 and 9 at that time.

Can anyone help me locate where and whom they were living with?

Have you found them after that to rule out deaths?

Not sure if you have got this but at least you know she was alive during 1911

Hi,

Gladys birth was registered as Gladys Amelia Jacobs in the September qtr of 1902 in Faversham registration district. There is a marriage in September qtr 1926 in Eastry reg dist (Eastry being in Kent, as is Faversham!) to a Henry R Smith. So it looks as if they both should be on the 1911.

Kind regards

David

There are at least two trees on Ancestry with this family but none have these two in 1911. I wonder if they are staying with other members of the family and have been entered under their name?

Evening

I was aware of Elsie's marriage in 1913 and that she appears to have died in 1938. I'm also aware that Gladys married in 1926 and appears to have died in 1977.

Its very odd that neither of them are with their parents, elder siblings or any relatives I have traced so far. Elsie could have been working which would explain her absence, but not Gladys.

Could they have been in a boarding school or similar institution

Might be worth having a look at Gladys King, same age, same birthplace - there's something odd about the household, but whether it's yours or not, I have no idea
