In 1911 I have Thomas 67 yrs and Lucy Fidler his wife 63 yrs shown as father and mother with T W Ward 33 head born Sheffield Yorks, Edith Ward 24 wife born Staveley and T W Ward 2 years son.

I know Thomas and Lucy had a daughter Edith born c1888 at Staveley which would tie in with Edith Ward but I just cannot find a marriage for an Edith Fidler and T Ward. According to the 1911 census they had been married for 3 years.

The only marriage I can find for T Ward and an Edith is in 1907 brides surname is Greasley. The only Ward/Fidler marriage the first names are totally wrong and the wrong area.

Hi Chris,

T W Ward is a few years older than Edith........ so could he have been married before meeting Edith?

What was his occupation in 1911?

Choccy thank you so much. It certainly looks like it doesn't it.

Dee, thank you for your reply too, he was a miner.
