........searching for three people in 1891

They are a woman and her two illegitimate sons, as follows.

Adelaide Salisbury born 1867 in Barby, Northants

John Henry Salisbury born 1886 in Barby, Northants

James Howe Salisbury born 1889 in West Haddon, Northants

She went on to have two more children with a Fred Letts before marrying him in 1896

I have ALL censuses for Adelaide EXCEPT 1891, and I have found Fred in 1891 (no Adelaide with him)

I use FMP, so if any kind person with Ancestry would have a look at ONLY 1891 for me, I'd be really grateful.

If only to prove that they were not recorded!

At least it would show that I'm not missing something which I ought to be seeing...............

Where/when were the later two born? might help to locate her in 1891

(sometimes we need to be able to see infi- like I have asked you for) for reference, you might have earlier census etc, but it does help searchers to post them for reference points

Thank you for that interesting snippet, Chris. Looks like she'd failed to send her child(ren) to school.



Penny
The other children (before and after marriage) were born in Long Buckby - the earliest one being in 1893

Please don't trouble yourselves any further.

It is clear that they are not on 1891 census.
