i can't see this family in the 1911 census, can anyone spot them?
gordon pembroke b.1905 camberwell, elsie broff b.1907 camberwell, and twins charles neville and kathleen hilda shaw b.1910 st giles.
they are children of octavius pembroke shaw and katherine wilce/wild, more on them here: https://www.familytreeforum.com/show...light=octavius
charles neville shaw d.3 sep 1910 at 28 pomeroy st, camberwell. inquest states he asphyxiated, and his father was on his way to western australia?! no idea why, mother not mentioned in the inquest, but no deaths for her between 1910-1912.
kathleen hilda shaw d.15 aug 1911 at 28 pomeroy st, camberwell.
so they should be there in the census, but they aren't. instead, there is a william shaw (william leonard langdon shaw; informant on kathleen's death, listed as uncle) 53, b.langdon hills, essex, brewery clerk. with his wife frances 55, and no futher details; other than they were married 7 years....william's wife was living with her kids in dublin in 1901 and 1911, so this is fishy. william dies 1926 in aston, herts.
i have traced gordon and elsie post 1911, so don't need anything there. i have octavius' family, and he was in the merchant navy, so explains his absence. i know nothing about the children's mother, katherine, except she is supposedly b.1884 (from marriage cert).
any help is greatly appreciated.
