REDFERN, George (of 39 Matthew St, born ~).
Baptised August 26, 1907, by S R N Rees at St Jude, Moorfields.
Parents name(s) are Ellen & George (Labourer).

For what it is worth, both those Matthew Street addresses have records on the 1911 census and the occupants are not Redferns

Dave, well found on that regarding addresses as my thought was that they were missing hence why we could not find the family.

I wonder if George ran his own business and if so would the info be in a Kellys?

Going back to the 1921 census, who did George work for?

Hi John,George was a Boiler Firer at Forge and Rolling Mills Cap. L.T.D at Milsands Sheffield Thanks Janette

An interesting item!!
"By far the biggest cause of people missing from the 1911 census was civil disobedience. As part of the protest against the government’s continued refusal to grant women the vote, the suffragettes organised a mass boycott of the census."
Dave

Thanks Denise for the nudge. This family certainly were unfortunate how their surname was written. LOL

Elaine.

Seems my grandad was a mystery in 1911 thanks Janette

That is interesting Dave, I wonder if any of them got fined for not completing the census as surely even in those days it was a legal requirement.

John
No woman was fined. Google it
Dave

Hi every one just like to say thank you for all your help,i will just have to except the fact my grandad was not on 1911 census due to his mum and dad not filling in the forms for some reason.thanks again Janette
