Find Ancestors

Hello, I am attempting to trace the Ainsworth family who were located in St Saviours, Southwark, London, England. I have Robert 1907 - 1976. My Grandfather. Interestingly, he does not show up on the 1911 census! His father Thomas b. 1864, His father Edward b. 1831 and his father Thomas b. 1801

Any advice or pointers gratefully received

Bob

As you know the 'line'....what are you asking us to help you with?

Me too, Reggie. We need him to come back with the facts he has. Having said that, there is a birth but I cannot find that Robert on the 1911

These are the baptisms of their children but I can't find a Robert.

Thomas is a Pastry Cook on all the baptisms with a couple of different addresses.

I saw that Death with the birth on it but thought it was not the rigt one.
