On the 1891 census Adelaide & Thomas"™s son John Ernest Twigg is living with his maternal grandparents.

Can anybody find Adelaide & Thomas Twigg and their son Frank Archer Twigg on the 1891 census please. I"™ve looked and tried different spellings of the surname Twigg, but can"™t find anything.

I did see on Ancestry a Thomas Twigg living in Canada in the 1891 census and just wonder if it"™s the same Thomas, as Adelaide states on the 1901 and 1911 censuses that she"™s married, but there"™s no Thomas Twigg around.

Many thanks
