Am trying to find Frederick James FOOTE and his wife Lucy. He was born in 1862 in Buckland Newton, Dorset. She was born abt 1865 Bolton. Their daughter Charlotte had married Ebenezer Cook(e) in 1909 (I can't find them either -- their daughter Lucy was born in 1910 in Preston RD) Their son Francis George had married Elizabeth Ann Ellen Robinson in 1910 (I can't find them either, though it seems they had a daughter Lilian in 1912 in Bolton) James and Lucy should be in Bolton in 1911, he dies there in 1927. Lucy dies in 1936 in Barrow in Furness (I believe this is where her son ends up, though he should be in Bolton in 1911). Charlotte and Ebenezer should be in the Preston area (though they are in Penarth, Glamorgan in 1939) Has Bolton gone into hiding in 1911?
in 1891 and 1901 he was a frame overlooker in a cotton mill; but on his son's marriage cert in 1910 he was a grocer
FMP has a Frederick James born 1863, a grocer dealer and his wife Lucy born 1865 living at 27 and 29 Adelaide St Bolton, Bolton, Lancashire, England. Might this be them? Im struggling to get the census ref from FMP they dont make it easy
The Genealogist has them mistranscribed as Roote. Cant find them on Ancestry yet that would make things easier
Oh that found him alright, thank you so much. I also like the mangling of Buckland Newton into Ballyhard Naunton Am submitting corrections so no-one else has this trouble 1911 census refs are not straightforward, at least I am never certain of them
Thought you should have the privilege of correcting them. The place of birth for him made me laugh. Ill submit a correction to The Genealogist.
I wondered the same. She'd not been married that long so it could have been a slip of the pen from habit
