Could anyone help please. On the 1901 Census there is Laura,Henry parents and children Laura, Rosina and Ethel the son is another question. We then come to the 1911 Census now there is Henry, Mary parents and children Ethel age 13 who is Laura's daughter and Ethel aged 17, i did find a death cert for Laura but could not find a marriage for Mary both the children have the name Boswell. 1891 Census Laura and Henry children George,Laura but on 1901we have Henry who is the same age as George who died in WW1. Who was my mothers uncle. Thanking you Gloria

Gloria, what exactly are you trying to find out? Is it when (if) Henry and Mary married? (They may not have done).

You don't give any dates or places. Could George have been George Henry?

The second Ethel in 1911 on FMP is actually Rose on the original image:
BOSWELL, Henry Head Married 25 years M 51 1860 Coppersmiths's Labourer London Holloway BOSWELL, Mary Wife Married F 42 1869 Blouse Machinest London Hoxton BOSWELL, Ethel Daughter F 13 1898 Schoolgirl London Hoxton BOSWELL, Ethel (actually Rose) Daughter Single F 17 1894 Kitchen Girl London Hoxton
RG number: RG14 Piece: 1348 Reference: RG14PN1348 RG78PN47 RD16 SD2 ED3 SN214 Registration District: Shoreditch Sub District: Shoreditch North West Enumeration District: 3 Parish: Shoreditch
Address: 6 Witchampton ST County: London
The 25 years married and 4 children born (all alive) is written on the line for Henry, not Mary.
Note - if you see something weird like two children with the same name always check the original image.

I can't follow what you're saying? I thought you said the 1911 census had 2 Ethels aged 13 and 17 but the 1911 census that I'm looking at has Henry, 51, wife Mary 42 and daughters Ethel, 13 and Rose, 17.

I'm pretty sure that Rosina's age in 1901 is 7 (not 4) which ties in to the 1911:
BOSWELL, Henry Head Married M 40 1861 Coppersmith's Labourer London BOSWELL, Laura Wife Married F 42 1859 Exeter BOSWELL, Henry J Son M 13 1888 London BOSWELL, Laura Daughter F 10 1891 London BOSWELL, Rosina Daughter F 4 (7) 1897 London BOSWELL, Ethell Daughter F 3 1898 London

Nice job, rootie!
Gloria - George and Henry would be one and the same person going by the baptism record I posted above. Not uncommon for names to be reversed.
