  • Notes 
    • Birth date given in baptism record (confirmed in 1939 census when recorded as divorced, living in St Austell, Cornwall).
      A note by the Registrar, James Pearson, on the 1921 census record states: 'The above family, being homeless, were allowed to sleep on board the barge by the owner's local representative. The man was not working on the barge. I suggest he comes under the heading of 'Homeless People'. The barge 'Merdale', registered in Mirfield, was lying at Top Locks, Runcorn.
