Is there a surname anywhere in your post?

Christine

[Helen in Bucks]

Chrissy, not sure if I'm just not seeing it in your post, but what surname are you looking at for all these siblings and what area? Do you have them all on 1901/1911 census? What are their parents' names? Helen

[Chrissy Confused]

opps sorry :o the surname is Long and I have them on 1901 census

[Helen in Bucks]

Don't know if this is pure coincidence, as you haven't confirmed which area of the country we are looking at, but there are some births in Barton Regis district on freebmd which could match and there are these three Longs on the 1911 census in some sort of Institution in Bristol (same sort of area):

INSTITUTION LONG CONSTANCE F 1909 2 Bristol Gloucestershire
INSTITUTION LONG AGNES F 1903 8 Bristol Gloucestershire
INSTITUTION LONG EDITH F 1907 4 Bristol Gloucestershire

Not sure its any help?

[Chrissy Confused]

opps again, yes those are mine, at least I think they are as Middle name are not the same as I have

[Breckland Jane]

This seems to be the rest of the family in 1911.

LONG ELLEN HANNAH 1873 38 Bristol
LONG ELLEN MARY 1898 13 Bristol
LONG GEORGE JOHN 1900 11 Bristol
LONG JAMES GILBERT 1902 9 Bristol
LONG WILLIAM EDWARD 1869 42 Bristol
LONG WILLIAM EDWARD 1896 15 Bristol
LONG LUCY EMMA 1910 9 MONTHS Bristol

[Chrissy Confused]

Yes thats them, thank you, does it have fathers Occupation?

1901 census RG13 2403 69 4, 2 Water Court,Westbury on Trym Gloucester

[Helen in Bucks]

on the ones I put up in the institution the F after their first name means Female rather than being a middle initial
