• Notes

  With his parents in the 1911 census, wife absent, but wrongly bracketed with his unmarried sister Mary and 'in law' faintly inserted under her designation 'daughter'. Oddly, a Luke Huntrer born Burscough, married 8 years (wife absent) is also in this census, age given as 28, a corporation carter lodging at 109 Witton Parade, Blackburn.
