rite listen very carefully I shall say zis only once!
on the 1901 living near this james Parkes and mary is a family called Rollason so the name is there
as George henry Parkes married martha rollason
now this Rollason is a Robert Rollason and his brother John marries a mary Parkes
so the name Parkes is linked there with Rollason
and I just wondered if perhaps somehow James Parkes and Mary Parkes were related
anyway Jimmy do you think that that 1881, 1891 and 1901 are all the same family
cos I do ages bit out maybe
starts off as a nailer on early census changes to stoker and then cant remember in the 1901
