Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Searching my granddads family , one sister Janet Martha Gardner { has Mum's maiden name } one Brother Fred J Fletcher , parents Joseph and Elizabeth Fletcher . Janet was 10 yrs and her brother 7 yrs in 1901 . Would like to know what happened to them or where did they go , someone must know something about them . Is it just Janet and Fred that you are keen to find out about. Did Janet marry if she did you would need to give her married name as well, so that the researcher that helps you has something to work on. I found this on www.ancestry.co.uk, is this Janet and her mum and gran maybe, 1891 England Census about Jennett Gardener Name: Jennett Gardener Age: 3/12 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1891 Relation: Granddaughter Gender: Female Where born: Llanvair, Shropshire, England Civil Parish: Llanvair Waterdine Ecclesiastical parish: Llanfair Waterdine Town: Newton County/Island: Shropshire Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: Education: Employment status: View Image Registration district: Knighton Sub-registration district: Knighton ED, institution, or vessel: 12 Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Elizabeth Gardener 35 Jennett Gardener 3/12 Marth Gardener 80 This is from the 1901 census, 1901 England Census about Joseph Fletcher Name: Joseph Fletcher Age: 32 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1869 Relation: Head Spouse's Name: Elizabeth Gender: Male Where born: Clun, Shropshire, England Civil Parish: Clun Ecclesiastical parish: Newcastle St John County/Island: Shropshire Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: Education: Employment status: View Image Registration district: Clun Sub-registration district: Clun ED, institution, or vessel: 3 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 58 Household Members: Name Age Elizabeth Fletcher 38 Fred J Fletcher 7 Joseph Fletcher 32 Richard J Fletcher 1 month Janet M Gardner 10 Agree with person above. That looks like Elizabeth in 1891 So Janet is born in 1891 to an unknown father. Fred is born 1894, Joseph is probably the father but they are not married. Eliz and Joseph get married in 1899 and Richard (John Richard Fletcher?) is born 1901. That makes it more complicated, as Janet and Fred may have decided to use the name Gardener or Fletcher in later life. ----------------- Frederick Joseph Gardner b Knighton 1894 |
