I have a Lily Barker who was born at 64 Sussex St on 28 Oct 1893 with no fathers name on birth certificate . I cannot find her on 1901 census. Her mother was 18 year old Susannah Barker born 1875 who I can't find on census returns for 1881 & 1891 so have no idea of Lily's grandparents. Does anyone know how I can find out who lived at 64 Sussex St in 1891 census & which parish it would be in please?
Many thanks, John

Hi John, Sussex St was Furnival Rd to Effingham Rd so that would be attercliffe.
Regards Barry Green

Hi John,

Suggestion.

If you go to our Parish Records and enter the address only just to see what comes up.

By using FMP this could well be her mothers baptisms.

Have you looked at the GRO index?

BARKER, SUSANNA STANFIELD
GRO Reference: 1838 J Quarter in THE ECCLESALL BIERLOW UNION Volume 22 Page 125

There is also FreeCen if you you do not have access to Anestry or FMP.

Our 1841 census index is also over to the left.

in 1891 at 64 Sussex Street was a William Walker and his family. John

John,

With a bit of clicking about, you can search the 1891 census by address in FMP.

In the 1891 census William and Mary J Walker (36 and 26 years old respectively) and their children William, Annie, and Ethel (6, 4, and 1) were living at 64 Sussex Street.

William was still there in September because he was advertising for a lost fox-terrier pup (Sheffield Daily Telegraph - Wednesday 13 September 1893).

They could have moved out just after though, who knows?

By 1901 it was Joe and Sarah Ann Pitts.

Cheers,

Andrew P.

Many thanks Andrew. I had hoped Susannah had been there in 1891 but not to be !

Hi John,

I think I need to explain myself.

First the address of 64 Sussex St. As I said just enter the address no name and two names come up Barker and Pitt. Lilly in 1893 & William in 1894. My initial thought was that the Barker family had moved on.

BUT..... Looking at my Alan Godfry map it appears that Sussex St were ALL Back to Back houses. So two families same address. She was baptised at Emmanual Attercliffe and William at St Johns Park.

On the baptisms page it states that Lillys mother was Susanna(h).

I then looked at the Gro index. BARKER, LILY -
GRO Reference: 1893 D Quarter in SHEFFIELD Volume 09C Page 545

No MMN.......

FMP. Dec qtr 1882.

Susannah Barker married one of these people

William Goodison, Charles Edley Brashaw, Arthur Thomas Booker I think there could be one male missing.?????

Certificates may be called for.

I am am having a problem getting into the Sheffield Council site to see how many and where these Susannah Barkers are from.

Dont discard those early Susannah Barkers it could be a family name.

In 1881 there is a Susannah Barker born 1875 living with her parents and siblings in Brightside Bierlow. Have you eliminated her?
