Find Ancestors

I am trying to find out about my grandfather. I am unable to find him on the 1921 census. He was on the 1911 census in Kingston, Surrey with his parents John Crawley and Mary Ann Crawley, nee Harman. He also had three brothers and two sisters as far as I know.

If anyone has any information about the family it would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Sharon

Your grandfather would have been 18, and possibly no longer living with his parents, because of work.

PM received from Sharon - replied at 3.22pm advising her to respond on here. Message opened………..

Thank you for your replies,

I am still unable to find the family altogether, some may have gone their own ways, family or work. Thank you, it does looks as though Mary may have passed away by this 1921 census. Also the suggestion of Nellie, born 1914, perhaps could be the name Ellen was now known by.

Nellie is a very common diminutive of Ellen

Thank you.
