    On the 1911 census Esther is shown as having 9 children, 7 surviving, 2 have died
    Daughter of William BACON and Martha LANGLEY
  3. 1891 Not found
    1901 Not found
    1911 Not found
    Information sent by Cheryl VICKERS
    No success in searches for birth or marriage registrations.
    We have not been able to find any of the family in census returns, birth or marriage registrations.
    So….no links to William and Esther, was George their son? How can we find out? Have not found him on 1891, 1901, 1911 census, or his birth, death or marriage! Did he exist? But then I was sent a wife’s name and a family.
  4. 1901 Not found
    1911 107 York Street, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
    The information for Bert and his brother George was sent to us by Cheryl VICKERS. I have been unable to find a birth registration for "Bert", nor details on the 1891 or 1901 census using criteria such as "BUTLER" "born 1890 +/-2" "father "William". 
    However, on the 1911 census, living with the family, there is a Herbert age 18. 
    But confusion still reigns!
    Births
    Herbert Arthur BUTLER September quarter 1893 Cambridge District, Cambridgeshire
    Herbert Edwin BUTLER December quarter 1893 Newmarket District, Cambridgeshire
    Deaths
    1893-1901 No Herbert Arthur or Herbert Edwin deaths
    1901 census
    Herbert BUTLER born 1894 son of Charles and Lucy born Swaffham Bulbeck and living Swaffham Bulbeck, Cambridgeshire
    No other Herbert or Bert entry.
    Deaths
    1901-1911 No Herbert Arthur, Bert or Herbert Edwin deaths
    1911 census
    Herbert BUTLER born 1893 son of W and Esther born Cambridge, Cambridgeshire living in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
    Deaths
    1901-1915 No Herbert A, Bert or Herbert E deaths
    1916 - Herbert Ewin (sic) born 28 October 1893 died 1877 Cambridge District, Cambridgeshire
    So...
    ......Herbert Edwin born 1893 Newmarket District, was in Swaffham Bulbeck in 1901 son of Charles and Lucy, where was he in 1911?, and he died in 1977
    ......Herbert Arthur born 1893 Cambridge, where was he in 1901?, in Cambridge in 1911 son of William and Esther, married 1937 to Eva who died in Cambridge, but no death for Herbert.
    Entries for Herbert are made using the above.
    Information from Cheryl VICKERS 19/5/2004.
    No children
    So as he is on a census with them he must be a child of William and Henry…..but was he Herbert Arthur? Can’t be Herbert Edwin as he was someone else’s son….but where did Herbert Arthur disappear to? I was sent the name Eva as a wife….but a possible marriage date about 10 years before it happened…..sorted it out somehow…..
  5. 1901 105 York Street, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
    1911 Not found
    So, this one is on the 1901 census with the family….but that’s all the information I have found.
  6. 1901 105 York Street, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
    1911 107 York Street, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
    Was sent Doris as second wife’s name but couldn’t find a suitable marriage and this one fits so I think the “Doris” was incorrect (I hope!)
  7. 1901 Not found
    1911 107 York Street, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
    Not on the 1901 census, was he then Walter F?
    Information from Cheryl VICKERS 19/5/2004.
    No children. Lodged at Aunt Emmies. Later his brother William joined him from Cambridge and married Vera Olive BODELL.
    You will see the query above….no Francis William on the 1901 census…appears on the 1911 so where was he in 1901? Then, the next child, no registration found, appears on the 1901 but not the 1911 – so were they the same child?
  8. 1901 105 York Street, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
    1911 Not found
    No birth registration found. Not on the 1911 census, was he Francis William?
  9. 1901 105 York Street, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire Age 6 months
    1911 107 York Street, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
    ???? Trumpington, Cambridgeshire
  10. 1911 Not found
    ???? Lived in Pickering Street, Off Essex Road, Islington, London
    And this family…..I have found nothing at all…..I could not find a birth or a marriage. Can’t hope to find a death without some idea of where they lived. Same with children. I tried Patrick as being a not too common name…there are dozens of them…and the dates I have are approximate so nothing to go on there. I tried looking for Sheila also but there are just no clues and I decided I was just wasting time.
  11. 1911 107 York Street, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire as Lizzie
  12. 1911 107 York Street, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
    Information from Cheryl VICKERS 19/5/2004.
    Unmarried but had 2 children
  13. 1911 107 York Street, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire

    And I make that 11 children whereas Esther says she had 9…..
    So….proven children who appear on a census with parents
    1. Herbert, 2, Edward, 3, John, 4, Francis William/Walter F, 5. William, 6. Elizabeth, 7. Alice and 8. Bert.
    Leaves George b 1891 and Arthur F born about 1902 as uncertainties
    Whilst George and Edward being the two who died – except I have a wife for George!

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
