Census record search for Brooks alberta

[jrainbrim]

Hello. I am trying to track down a census record for a family called Tallbot. Son Denver/Hulbert born in 1920, father Albert, born 1900 in Britain and  mother a native Blackfoot indian. No idea of year born. Albert is a trapper.
The family lived in Brooks Alberta until the early 1940s. Albert died in 1925. Denver and his mother lived with a relative after that year. Denver left Canada without his mother to work as merchant seaman on ships and stayed in Wales until death.

Please note I have all records for Denver's life in Wales.

Thank you.

Canadian censuses are not available for that period

Denvers death reg shows him as Denver Hullbot Tallbot b 28.8.1920

Was Albert b Cardiff?  If so - surname for him is Talbot - one L

EDIT

A tree on Ancestry shows Albert was b 1894??

We think England.

I’m guessing that you haven’t found the family in a 1920 or 1921 census?  Was Denver a family name?  It’s a bit unusual.  If it wasn’t a family name could it have been a place name, such as Denver, Colorado?

Denver married in 1951 in Glamorgan

The 1939 register has around 40 entries for the christian name Denver which surprised me - one b 1872 but most born from 1900 onwards

My ancestor’s sister, born mid-1700s in Sussex, England, was named Philadelphia.  I believe there were several girls in that area who were also named Philadelphia at the time.  I suppose some names became a fad during certain times.

Thank you for finding the details, Carole.  I won’t spend too much time looking for the family in Colorado.

jrainbrim, are there any other details, no matter how small they might seem, that you can give us to help us find the family members, please?

Added: in what context was Brooks mentioned?  Where was it mentioned that Albert died in 1925 (which might lead us to where he died).  Perhaps Denver and his mother lived with her relative, or should we be looking for a Tal(l)bot family member?  Are there any details about his trapping such as in what province (or U.S. state) he worked?  Etc.

They lived in Brooks - Alberta - Canada - not the US.    Can't see an incoming passenger record for Denver so don't know when he arrived in the UK - but obviously before 1951

Where did you get Alberts birthyear & birthplace from?  How old was he when he died in 1925?
