  • Any Idea's???

    Hello everybody

    Can anybody suggest how I may go about locating My ancestor on the 1881 and 1891 census?

    I have posted up about him before, his name being Charles Abraham Pote.
    I have tried lots of different varients of his name but with no success.

    I know he was alive as he didnt die untill 1898.

    Any suggestions on what I may try would be very welcome

          Charles Abraham Pote born c1843 in Dalston, Middlesex London.

          He was a Clock and Watchmaker by trade.

          On the 1881 census he may have been in Wales.

            I am coming up completely blank:(

            He must have made it onto one of the census atleast.

            His name must have been completely messed up.

              His birth and death don't seem to tally quite with his age if these are him ? -

                Did he marry Cecily or Lucy?

                  Those are his birth and deaths that I have come up with.

                  He married Lucy, I have Lucy on the 1881 census under the name of Depete.

                  Lucy had a child with my Charles in Rochdale in 1881.
                  She also had afew more kids with Charles that they registered under the name Depote.

                      I'm not getting any joy either.

                      Note sure whether I saw a Depote in 1881 census - can't find it again though

                        Lucy is just with the kids in 1881 census.

                        Charles was arrested in 1882 for ripping people off.
                        He was arrested in Bangor Wales.

                          She's listed as Depete in 1881.

                            She was down as Depete and was very hard to locate but someone helped me with that one.

                              This probably won't help, but the people in my tree who give their birthplace as Dalston on one census invariably seem to have a different birthplace on each one - Hackney, Islington, Hoxton, London, you name it!

                                What do you think I should put in the birth place column?

                                Perhaps just leave it blank?

                                  The trouble is, if you just look for a Charles without specifying birthplace you would get way too many results. If I'd drawn a blank with Dalston then I would probably try with the other possible place names, e.g. Hackney, Islington, Hoxton, Kingsland, and if no joy with those, then try London as the birthplace and if that fails try London as the birth county, then try Middlesex as the birth county (but you will probably get a lot of matches for that one)
