I can see that the father changes his name between censuses, which could be confusing, but as his place of birth, wife, children, age and occupation stay the same, I think it would be reasonable to assume it is the same person. To check you would need to obtain Joseph's birth certificate to find his mother's maiden name, which would hopefully be HENRY to fit in with the father-in-law present on the 1901 census.

Oscar Posted May 29, 2007 Author Share Posted May 29, 2007 Thanks RichardB and Janet yes it is the change of the Head's name from John to Thomas that's confusing I really am glad you both came up with the same family as i did, now i'm more than certain it's them thankyou Sylvia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oscar Posted May 30, 2007 Author Share Posted May 30, 2007 Hi Yes John Moran married Catherine Henry in Sheffield 1877 What's more confusing, in the 1881 census John and Catherine along with Son's Peter, John and Daughter Agnes are living in Norton Derby but also in 1881 There is Michael Henry living with his own family and 2 grandson's Peter and John Moran in Pinfold St. What i am trying to find out is if the John Moran listed as Nephew in the 1901 census is in fact their son,because they did have a son called John bn 1879 Because my Grandad John Moran was supposedly a orphan who was brought up with Joseph Moran and his family. thankyou Sylvia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
