Message received: this is'nt my john stitt. the one im looking for was he born in silloth cumberland in 1879 and was on the 1891 cencor but after that i cannot find him anywhere, his father was hugh stitt & mother elizabeth (dalton) i know this as they are my great grandparents.
Therefore the 1911 census found is also wrong (as Bigrigg is 30 miles from Silloth), so we are still looking for him in 1901 and 1911. In 1891 his father Hugh is from Dumfries, Scotland, and his mother from Penrith Cumberland, and these are the children: William E Stitt 17 Mary A Stitt 14 John Stitt 12 Johanna Stitt 11 Thomas Stitt 8 Jessie Stitt 6 Joseph S Stitt 3 Hugh Stitt 10/12

I was assuming that the marriage to Beatrice was the wrong one. There are 2 John Stitts, Births Jun 1878 STITT John Wigton 10b 543 Births Jun 1879 Stitt John Whitehaven 10b 664 We need the Silloth(Wigton) one, not Bigrigg.

I think youre right about that marriage being wrong
His dad is a 'seaman' so it is likley John followed the trade. If he did, he may well be away at sea during the night of the censuses
Or.....he's one of the John Stitts on the immigration records I'm looking at!

I am related to John Stitt he was my Great Grandfather, but he is not the Stitt you are seeking. Johns father was Andrew Stitt and they came from Newtownards originally Ireland.
