The way to get your great-grandfather's name is to look on your grandfather's birth cert. As your grandfather was born 1911, he won't be on the 1901 census with his dad.

This is the only one that comes up on the Index. To find his birth cert you will need to go through each quarter of the Free BMD images I think. Name: Roland George Thwaites Year of Registration: 1909 Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun District: Malling County: Kent Volume: 2a Page: 810

Toxteth P (Park) is part of Liverpool so that one is possibly correct. so,with the other info you given, this must be a part of your family in 1881 Charlotte Thwaites abt 1835 Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England Wife Toxteth Park Lancashire Charlotte Thwaites abt 1865 Liverpool, Lancashire, England Daughter Toxteth Park Lancashire Joseph Thwaites abt 1833 Liverpool, Lancashire, England Head Toxteth Park Lancashire Joseph Thwaites abt 1873 Liverpool, Lancashire, England Son Toxteth Park Lancashire Mary E.
