Thanks for the help.

I'll buy myself some credits on Scotlands people and look up various bits.

Mark.

I would see if the person with the tree on Anc. is willing to share info?

If not, I think the DC would be my 1st call?

If you have his YoB correct(ish) that death would fit with his age.

He seems to have been registered as plain George or maybe Alexander?

A possible;

SPENCE GEORGE 1911
685/2 436 St Andrew (Edinburgh)

How did you know about him?

St Andrew, Midlothian

Others in household;

Caroline 35

If George was born at the end of 1910 it would be indexed the following yr & for the 1911 census he would still be 1 yr old, not 2 until the end of the yr?

If George was born at the end of 1910 it would be indexed the following yr & for the 1911 census he would still be 1 yr old, not 2 until the end of the yr?

The 1911 census was taken on 2 April. If he was born any time between 3 April 1909 and 2 April 1910 he would be one year old on the date of the 1911 census, but if he was born on or after 3 April 1910 he would not be a full year old and should show up as 0 years old in the census.

If he was born in January 1911 he would be 2 months old on the day of the census - it is possible that someone could have misindexed 2 months as 2 years. You need to look at the original of the census to check.
