Find Ancestors

Good afternoon all,
Well after years of searching for James Thomas Norris born 1874 from Greenwich Kent in the 1911 census I have finally found him!!!
I found him on Ancestry under birth place " Harlton London " but unfortunately his wife Alice Norris born Stanton 1877 from Deptford and their son James Thomas Norris born 1901 remain aloof!
Any help would be so welcomed.
My thanks for your time in reading my thread,
Kind regards Ann.

Could you please post the 1911 census which you have found him on because I can't seem to see it at the moment.

Thanks,

Dea x

...................He doesn't state that he is married, or single, so I'm wondering if he could actually be widowed?

.........................could very well be, then that mother did die and father couldn't look after the girls on his own????

NOTE:-
Just realised that the girls above are living Reg.Dist. Brentford and the death for mother Alice is also Reg.Dist. Brentford, so it all seems to fit together nicely, so well worth looking into more closely.

Sorry, not having much luck with son James Thomas Norris :-(

from Public Family tree on ancestry ...................treat with caution, dod not add to your tree unless you can confirm the details.

But it does some ideas for the son James Thomas


There is a photograph of James T with sisters Alice and Rosina

The tree on ancestry has Alice as having died in 1929 but these are the only deaths in 1929 for an Alice Norris:-

Deaths Mar 1929 (>99%)
Norris Alice 84 Chorley 8e 920
Norris Alice 71 Reading 2c 728
Norris Alice 60 Wandsworth 1d 985
Norris Alice E 44 Lewisham 1d 2047
Norris Alice E 68 Southampton 2c 20
Norris Alice S 51 Greenwich 1d 1737

Deaths Jun 1929 (>99%)
Norris Alice 72 Canterbury 2a 1215
Norris Alice D 59 Wandsworth 1d 474

Deaths Sep 1929 (>99%)
Norris Alice E 18 Maidenhead 2c 405

...............the only one in Lewisham would be too young and the only one in Greenwich has a middle name S ?

.................................and Chris has her still in Deptford in 1930?

I still have a strong feeling that the 1902 death is her !

Why else would her children be in those places and her husband living away?

Are we absolutely certain that the 1918 death for James is the correct James?

I know he has a wife called Alice but there must be other James's married to an Alice???

Good morning all,
Firstly please I must apologise for not being able to reply to you all sooner, and secondly may I thank you for you time in helping me.
Ok then Alice Norris was born Alice Sarah Stanton (and yes I came across her down as Alice E Norris) and she did die in 1929. Daughters were ALice Sarah Norris born 1896 and Rosina Norris born (1899) Son James Thomas Norris was born just after the census was taken in .
All the above information you all kindly found, I already knew, but for some reason Alice Norris and her son James Thomas Norris Seem very aloof in 1911!!! , And it has become somewhat of (a dog with a bone ) thing with me.
Again many, many thanks to you all for your time and very kind help in assisting me with my so called (dog with a bone).
Thank you all, Ann.

Hi Chris,
Chris I see that you have Alice Norris in 1930 in the Electoral Reg I would be sure that would be the Daughter of Alice, who as you know was also called Alice.
Again many thanks for helping me.
Kind regards Ann.
