Family including William Albert (names that way round) can be seen in 1921 at that address

So we can also rule that Albert William Percival out

[CaroleW]

In 1911 daughter Mary Percival aged 9 was in a school in Carnarvon run by the C of E Waifs & Strays Society

Albert W jnr & Thomas Richard are with their Jones grandparents

They had another child - William born & died September qtr 1901

The 1911 for Mary shows 5 children born & 2 died but can't find another birth at the moment

Hello again

I too have the same information, I do not think there are any more children.
The daughter as you say was taken into care, perhaps Mary could not cope, hence the two sons with the grandparents, and perhaps Mary working as part of a larger staff, perhaps a cook, at a house in Anglesey, North Wales.

It gets more intriguing doesn't it?

Thank you again Carole
