Good afternoon
I wondered if anyone could help our family find information re our relative Earnest Edward Delaney ,he was born 1886 in Staunton to Hubert And Sarah Jane Delaney.
We cannot find his whereabouts on the Census of 1891 or the 1901 census he appears only on the 1911 census .
He married Eleanor Hopkins in Staunton in 1908 and had 3 children Phyllis, John and William .

Hi Dianne

Genes Reunited have the family (transcribed as Delacey) on the 1891.

Person 2
First Name Ernest E
Last Name Delacey
Birth Year 1886
Age 5
Birth County Gloucestershire
Birth Town Bicknor
Birth Place England
Relationship To Head of Household Son
Gender Male
Occupation Scholar
Condition
Archive Reference RG12
Folio 88
Page 9
Piece Number 43403

Regards
Chris

This is the Delaney family in 1891 (Source - Ancestry):

English Bicknor
Given Name Surname Relationship Gender Age Estimated Birth Year Birth City or District Birth County Birth Country
Hubert Delaney Head Male 41 1850 West Dean Gloucestershire England
Sarah Hughes Wife Female 42 1849 Cirencester Gloucestershire England
Kate E Hughes Daughter Female 17 1874 West Dean Gloucestershire England
Annie Hughes Daughter Female 13 1878 West Dean Gloucestershire England
John Hughes Son Male 9 1882 West Dean Gloucestershire England
Ernest E Hughes Son Male 5 1886 Bicknor Gloucestershire England

From this you will see that apart from the Head of the household the surname has been transcribed as Hughes in error.

The family in 1901
Staunton
Household Number Name Relation to Head Age Estimated Birth Year Gender Birth Place
17 Hubert Delaney Head 51 1850 Male Hillersland, Gloucestershire, England
17 Sarah Jane Delaney Wife 52 1849 Female Cirencester, Gloucestershire, England
17 Annie Delaney Daughter 23 1878 Female Berry Hill, Gloucestershire, England
17 John Delaney Son 19 1882 Male Berry Hill, Gloucestershire, England

Ernest Edward is not at home and I have not been able to find him in the 1901 Census. However there is a Henry Delaney born the same year listed as follows:
Household Number Name Relation to Head Age Estimated Birth Year Gender Birth Place
Elm Farm, Staunton
29 Henry Daries Head 26 1875 Male Abergwili, Carmarthenshire, Wales
29 Elizabeth Daries Wife 24 1877 Female Llandyssil, Carmarthenshire, Wales
29 Mary Morgan Daries Daughter 2 1899 Female Staunton, Gloucestershire, England
29 David John Daries Son 1 1900 Male Staunton, Gloucestershire, England
29 George Pritchard Servant 21 1880 Male Hereford, Herefordshire, England
29 Henry Delaney Servant 15 1886 Male Gloucester, Gloucestershire, England
29 Jane Webb Servant 16 1885 Female Kentchurch, Herefordshire, England

I have not been able to locate a Henry born 1886 so this may be an error by the Enumerator but we cannot count on it.

It is also worth mentioning that Ernest Edward's birth is registered as follows:
Child Surname Child Forename Father Surname Mother Surname Mother's Former Name Year District Office Register Entry
DELANEY Edward Ernest DELANEY DELANEY JEFFRIES 1886 Forest of Dean Monmouth, Coleford 43 469

and baptised as follows:
Year: 1889
Month: Dec
Day: 17
Parents_Surname: DELANEY
Child_Forenames: Edward Ernest
Fathers_Forenames: Hubert
Mothers_Forenames: Sarah
Mothers_Surname:
Residence: Whippington`s Brook
Occupation: Collier
Officiating_Minister: Chris Jay Jones Rector
Event: Baptism
Memoranda: Born 16 Feb 1886
Notes:
Register_Reference: P310 IN 1/8
Page_Number: 68
Parish_Chapel: Staunton

His siblings are:
Child Surname Child Forename Father Surname Mother Surname Mother's Former Name Year District Office Register Entry
DELANEY Annie DELANEY DELANEY JEFFRIES 1877 Forest of Dean Monmouth, Coleford 35 369
DELANEY John DELANEY DELANEY JEFFRIES 1882 Forest of Dean Monmouth, Coleford 40 112
DELANEY Kate Elizabeth DELANEY DELANEY JEFFRIES 1873 Forest of Dean Monmouth, Coleford 30 320

Ernest married Eleanor Hopkins born Mitchel Troy, Monmouthshire. This is her baptism(source MonGenes):
Parish or Chapel Mitchel Troy
Date 30 Mar 1884
Parent's Surname HOPKINS
Child's forename(s) Helen
Father's forename(s) John
Mother's forename(s) Mary
Mother's surname (if different)
Type of Event Baptism
Residence Mitchel Troy
(Father's) Occupation Labourer
Officiating Minister RW Everett
Memoranda in register
Transcriber's Notes
Gwent record office
register ref. number LDS/PA 3
Parish register entry no. 746
Parish register page no. 94

and this would appear to be Eleanor in 1901:
1901
