1901 Census Help

[Raven]

sorry me again...

looking for Edward J Russell b1880 Howick Northumberland on the 1901 Census.

Have found his father, stepmother and his sister in Craster Northumberland, his sister Katherine M Russell in Aldenham, Hertfordshire and his brother Robert A Russell in East Murton, Durham.

Can't seem to see him... can anyone help please..

Thank you.

Do you know that he was alive in 1901?

[Raven]

Vicki,

He was a witness at his sister Jane's wedding in 1907 in Embleton, Northumberland.

Sorry Raven I can't see him. Is there any chance he was in either the Army or Navy?

[Lyn A]

Can't see him.....but may have missed something!! Brains a bit dead tonight! LOL!!!He wouldn't have been in the army, would he? 1901...may have been in India?
Found out that's where a cuple of mine had disappeared to.

[Lyn A]

Oh, Vikki...you type faster than me!!! PMSL!!

[Raven]

Still looking.. pass the paracetamol please!

I know it makes little difference, but was he anywhere obscure in 1891?

by 1901is he more likely to be lonesome on his own-some , or with a wife & kids?

Raven - Howick (nr. Alnwick) isn't a million miles from the Scottish border. Is it possible they strayed north for one census?

[Raven]

Uncle John,

Have tried there as well.. Edward's father Robert was born in Peeblesshire. I thought he might have gone to visit family but I can't see him...

[Elaine ..Spain]

There is an Edward Russell listed on Kevin Asplin's Boer War site

Russell, Edward 23738, Private 63rd Coy., 1st Bn. I.Y.

- a possibility I suppose.

[Raven]

Yes Elaine it is a possibility
