Brenda, Cassandra, thanks for your help. I did try FreeBMD before I wasted lots of credits on the 1911 census, but Cassandra is right, I was confusing Derby with West Derby Liverpool, so back to the drawing board.

Thanks again

I am trying to find the children of Robert Barber Thorpe born Sept 1878 in Notting Hill. Married Ellen Francis White in 1903 in Derby, and moved to Hoylake, Wirral after marriage. I have tried the 1911 census without success.
