Hi All, first time with the forum, so here goes....
I am having problems locating my Great Grandparents in the 1881, 1891, 1901 census. I have my grandfathers birth certificates which give his parents as Edward and Mary Jane Griffin and he was born in Middlesboro in 1887. I cannot locate Edward and Mary Jane in any of the census, i know Edward was alive in 1917. Only by searching for Sophia Griffin can i locate a family in the 1881 census, with Edward and Mary Jane and 2 children, Thomas and Sophia, in Middlesboro. Now since my grandfather (Christopher) was born in 1887 i need to find them altogether in the 1891 census but i get zero results. I also know that Sophia lived to marry and Edward and Christopher were alive in 1917 in Hartlepool. Could anyone point me to how to find them together, particularly in the 1891 census?
Thanks,
Griff
