Thomas Kettle 25 bach Plate layer Titford William Kettle Labourer

Emma Higley is here..

I am pretty sure this is them in 1901..
61 Ashes Road, Warley, Worcestershire, England
Thomas Kettle(30) elect. lab. at brewery,,b.Droitwich,
wife Emma(30) b.Bromsgrove,
daughters Edith(6) b. Causeway Gr,
Ellen(5) & Emma(4) both b. Oldbury,
Minnie(1) b.Warley,
broth-in-law Charlie Higley(3) b.Ombersley

Now, if Charlie is her brother.... could we track down the rest of her family?
I am a bit puzzled over the fact that her father was listed as deceased by 1893 ( on her marriage)
... yet Charlie Higley is 3 on the 1901 census?



Can anyone work that out?

1881 Census
Dwelling Addis Lane
Census Place Elmbridge, Worcester

Could be a wrong relationship Ex Pat, maybe Charles is a nephew rather than a brother in law, think they were often confused? Need to find him in 1911, sorry I don't have that Census. Linell.

Don't think this will help much

Could it mean Brother in law to the other children.

The only way to be sure would be a birth cert or marriage cert,
