On the 1911 census (RG14; Piece: 2358) for James Bradshaw Head 55 Married Printer's Labourer born Walworth, London it is shown that he had 6 children, three of whom had died. One of his children is shown as Jane Bradshaw. I have him in the 1901 (RG13; Piece: 389; Folio: 135; Page: 4) and 1891 ( RG12; Piece: 362; Folio: 6; Page: 4) census records and Jane, together with two other children: Ada and James are present. James married Elizabeth Sarah Kalthoeber on 5 June 1881, just after the 1881 census was taken. My question is how if at all I can find the births and deaths of the other three children with only the above information available?

Probably only by elimination

Try FreeBMD for possible births and deaths between the census,s

It's also worth trying to find baptism in the London parish records

The other children will have been born in or around Walworth or Tooting (in later years up to 1911.

Jane born 1882, Walworth (Newington on 1891)
James born 1883, Newington, Surrey
Ada born 1886, Newington, Surrey

In 1891, the parents are living in Newington, St Saviour, Southwark
In 1901 they are living in Bermondsey, St Olave, Southwark
1911 they’re living in Wandsworth.

Looking at the years they were born, there’s a good chance that at least one child was born between James (1883) and Ada (1885)

??? for the named children???

Births Mar 1882
Bradshaw Jane Elizabeth St. Saviour 1d 139

Births Mar 1883
Bradshaw James Charles St. Saviour 1d 123

Births Jun 1885
Bradshaw Ada Florence St. Saviour 1d 40

Possible siblings born in the same district in 1884

Births Jun 1884 (>99%)
BRADSHAW Charles John St. Saviour 1d 31
BRADSHAW Horace George St. Saviour 1d 180

Births Sep 1884 (>99%)
Bradshaw Cyril Anneley St. Saviour 1d 121

There are an awful lot of Bradshaws born in the St Saviour registration district to 1886-1901.

Only the one Bradshaw birth in St Olave 1891-1901
Births Dec 1897 (>99%)
Bradshaw Emma St. Olave 1d 235

We don’t know exactly when they moved to Wansdworth.

Unless we can find baptisms (and Ancestry is playing up at the moment) the only way to discover if either Charles John or Emma were their children is buy the BC
