    Nudge up as this has been moved over from another board, so people may not have had a chance to see it. I'm not sure that the archives would be the right place to start looking for information, to be honest, because it sounds more as though you need to get his birth certificate, or if you already have that, you would need to get Clara's birth certificate. Even if someone managed to find their baptisms at the archives, which could take a lot of searching, the baptism entries wouldn't give you as much information as a birth certificate. I'll see if I can find them on the censuses though, as that might help...

      Is this the family on the 1911 census, or am I barking up the wrong tree?

        Hi Sue,

        I may be able to find something out for you but I will need a bit more information.

        Do you know where Clara was in the 1901 census?
        If she was in Shrewsbury, it will help to narrow down which area to look in.
        Shrewsbury is quite a large town and has many parishes, so any added information you can provide would be a great help.

            Is your grandfather the one who was born in 1902? So his mother was Clara and so was his wife/partner?

            I'm just guessing, as you didn't say how you were related in your original post, and so I think we presumed the mother of the 1902 child wasn't married.
