Can someone please who has the 1911 Census help me to find out about my late Great Uncle John Roberts born 1888.
He is on the 1901 Census aged 13 and living on Llynclus Hill Llanyblodwell near Oswestry with his father Charles and brother also named Charles. I would like to find out what happened to him and where he went to between 1901 and 1911 or even later.

Many Thanks
Brian

Thank you, yes it seems to be him.

Many Thanks

You may find the marriage on free bmd, with that name there are probably a lot, you could send for a cert. stating his father's name as a checking point. Have you looked on this site to see if anyone else is looking for the family.
