Hi Alan,



Starting with William Midgley, this is what I've found so far. I can't be 100% sure it's your William, but it's a good possibility!



1891 census



Age: 20

Estimated birth year: abt 1871

Birth place: Scarborough, Yorkshire

Residence: Stable Yard, Clumber Park, Worksop, Nottinghamshire

Occupation: Groom



1901 census



Age: 30

Estimated birth year: abt 1871

Birth place: Scarborough, Yorkshire

Residence: 20 Little Chester Street, St George Hanover Square, Knightsbridge (Lodger)

I have found a possible marriage for Maud Midgley: (again not 100% sure)

Charles Kent



I have found possible children from this marriage:



Frances M Kent 1913

Is this the kind of information you are looking for?

MrsP

Hi Alan,



For the males in particular, have you tried the 1911 census at http://www.findmypast.co.uk. Unfortunatley, due to their copyright, members are not allowed to help with that bit.

Mrs P



Thanks for the prompt reply on the Midgley's. This is the type of info I am looking for.

Hi Starlight



No I have not tried the 1911 census as yet but will look into it.
