Would some one be so kind to look up the 1881 census.Trying to find who Annie Shaw is
She was born 1871 in Nottingham then in 1891 was a lodger with the Pratt family in Bradford 1891.

the family ;;;Albert 1852-1909 and Elizabeth Pratt 1856 one of there daughters was
Florence 1887-1926 my grandmother .

Why i am interested in Annie is because Florence was born in Nottingham 1887 even though the family by this time had moved from Lincolnshire to Bradford so i was wondering if there is a family connection? hope u can help :-)

Just out of interest ............

1891 Census

Name: Annie Shaw
Age: 20
Estimated birth year: abt 1871
Relation: Lodger
Gender: Female
Where born: Nottinghamshire, England
Civil Parish: Bolton
Ecclesiastical parish: St James
County/Island: Yorkshire
Country: England

Registration district: Bradford
ED, institution, or vessel: 61

Piece: 3627
Folio: 85
Page Number: 11

Albert Pratt 39
Elizabeth Pratt 35
Martha Ann Pratt 17 Apprentice to Cigar Maker
John Pratt 14 Apprentice to Cigar Maker
Louisa Pratt 11 b.ca 1880, Bradford
William Pratt 7 b.ca 1884, Nottinghamshire
Florence Pratt 4 b.ca 1887, Nottinghamshire
Annie Shaw 20 Cigar Maker


Could it be simply that the connection is the Cigar making factory ............. Annie was looking for lodgings, and the Pratts offered her a room (or even just a bed).

Also note that William was also born in Nottinghamshire, according to this census.

i was hoping for a family connection......iam sure the Pratts must have known Annies family as Florence was born in Nottingham.

Does she appear on the 1901 census ?

annie may have been a lodger with the family as the young ones were cigar makers like annie and she was working away from home

Barry ..............


who knows whether she appears in 1901 .............

she's 20 years old in 1891, her name is very common, and she probably married in the intervening 10 years.

Not seeing any...

(if you're coming from the angle Henry/Sophia there (97, Red Lion Street) 1881, looks to be their daughter Annie E. below perhaps)
