If anyone has access to the 1930 US Census, I would be most grateful if they could let me know what information there is on Frederick J Cain. Shown in New York City, NY. Birth about 1872, birthplace England. If there is info on the 1920 census I would be pleased to hear about it. I know he left England after the UK 1911 Census.

He arrived on the Leviathan 3 September 1923. His last residence in UK was in Scotland.

Blimey, that was quick. Now that's very interesting regarding the Kings in the household, as I think his second wife was Helen King. I can't find what happened to his first wife Elizabeth Pricella something or other. ( I will have to chech FreeBMD for their marriage to see if I can find her maiden name.) Thanks. Bob

Alexander King's arrival in USA. He's with mother Mary Ann aged 60. Going to join her daughter Mrs. Ellen Bain?, 1718 2nd. Ave., New york City.

Bob - you'll see where I've added the relationships on the 1930 that I posted that Ellen King must have previously been married to a Mr Renny and it looks like she had her first son (Herbert) before that marriage.

You need a sub for Ancestry's 1930 image, and (unlike 1900/40) it's not free on FS.

Here's the 1930 image - you're best to magnify 4 clicks, then save image.

Thanks for all your help. I am still uncertain that this is the Frederick James Cain I am looking for. His 1st wife was Elizabeth Pricella Ladd, who was the mother of his children, but I am unable to find a marriage. Their 1st child, also Frederick was born 1904, and they are all shown in the 1911 census in Ealing. I know that the Ealing connection is correct because I have today spoken to his grand-daughter. Bob

I can't find the 1911 census to which you refer?
