Hi Jimmy,
I don't have the 1891 census stats yet - but I was just hoping to find him a little later in life!
Thanks,
Darren

Oh! Thanks for looking Jimmy. Did he die or is he just being elusive I wonder? No sign of him on the 1901 census?

I wonder if that could be him? He is a complete mystery to our family so I'd gladly order any 'likely' marriage certificates to try and gleam some more information! Shame that both Arthur and Baker were such common names during that time! An unusual middle name would have helped.

Jimmy,
Thank you for taking the time and effort to assist with my brickwall problem. You've certainly given me loads to probe into. If the marriage between Arthur and Ada turns out to be correct, then you've solved nearly all the questions I had! I really appreciate it.
