Gill,
I have found some records which I believe are for Charles Askew.
He is a widower and has three children, Charles Frederick, Gertrude Florence, Edith Grace.

The date of birth and Army number agree.

If you want these records please let me have your email address on Messages.

Hello Shiela.

I appreciate you looking up James White. Really strange I have his birth and death details but on the one census I need to confirm his parents & siblings he goes walkabout.

Many thanks for trying for me.

Hi Sheila

Thanks for your kind offer. Could you please have a look in the 1901 British census for William Hamilton, b. 1849 in Hamilton, Scotland?

In the 1881 British census, William Hamilton, age 31, head of household, unmarried, draper, is living at 366 Caledonian Road, London, Middlesex, with his mother, Janet, 59, and a boarder, George De Gray, age 23, shopman (draper).

The 1891 census shows William Hamilton, 41, draper, still living at 366 Caledonian Road, London, Middlesex, with his mother, age 69 (her name mistranscribed as Louisa rather than Janet) and a lodger, Kate Wood, age 30, assistant draper.

I couln't find WIlliam Hamilton in 1901.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Cheers,

Linda

Ben,

This is the family with whome Charles Evans was living

1851
Edward Jones abt 1825 Madeley, Shropshire, England Head Great Dawley, Shropshire


Elizabeth Jones
abt 1841 Wellington, Shropshire, England Daughter Great Dawley, Shropshire


Mary Jones abt 1821 Wenlock, Shropshire, England Wife Great Dawley, Shropshire

Darlaston would be correct. There are many mis-transcriptions on Ancestry.
