Hi all,

I have been looking at the free access today on Ancestry for the 1921 census. However I can't seem to find my Great Great Grandparents in Sheffield? They are John Gibson Fouldes (1861-1926) and Julia Fouldes (nee Oates) (1857-1932). I keep trying different spellings but they just don't appear! Can anyone help locate them in the 1921 census?

Thanks in advance!
MJ

They are at 32 Delf St.

John Gibson Fouldes, head, 59 years 10 months old, married born Orton, Nottinghamshire.
Motor examiner for Corporation Tramways, workplace Queens Rd, Sheffield.

Julia Fouldes, wife, 63 years 9 months, born Sheffield. Home duties.

George Fouldes, son, 29 years 9 months, born Sheffield. Single, a baker working for Arthur Davy & Sons, Food Providers, of Paternoster Row, Sheffield.

Edith Pearson, daughter, 31 years 3 months, born Sheffield married, home duties. Might say “nitting”

Henry Denton Pearson, son in law, 32 years 8 months born Sheffield. Silversmith. General Mounter.

when looking for the burials Julia suname is FOULDS John G surname is FOULDES.

some are in Burngreave, some are in Abbey Lane.

I must be being super dumb as I am adding all those details you kindly shared but nothing comes up at all! I guess I am doing something wrong but not sure what! I shall persevere!

Thanks
MJ

Do not forget to use he * for a wildcard

MJ,
The reason you are not finding it is that Ancestry has transcribed Fouldes as Honedes.

Oh wow! Thank you so much!! How the heck did they manage to make such a bizarre mis-transcription!? How is anyone supposed to find stuff like that?! 🤣 Imagine I had paid for Ancestry and couldn't find anything!

Well I really appreciate your effort!!

Thank you again
MJ
