Thanx Jan x

Requesting help with 1901 & 1911 census please

[grangers14]

1911 James occupation looks like General Labourer at Blast Furnaces (pig iron manufacturers)
Where some children were born, transcribed as Etruria and looks like that. Apparently its a suburb of Stoke-on-Trent.

[mjay]

Yes please move to brick walls section n I'll come back to it,
I've tried different sites n can't find anything so like you say lots of digging

Thanx again x
