I agree.

The census entries between 1881 and 1901 are certainly the correct person. John William, his son, was my great grandfather. Enos was still in Crawcrook, Durham, in 1911.

I think that he very strong accent may have caused a problem for officials in Durham, so am not even certain his name would have been listed correctly. I can find no trace prior to 1881 and a birth certificate search has proved fruitless so far.

I am still waiting for the postman to arrive with Enos (or Ernest, as written on the marriage record) and Esther's marriage certificate. I'm hoping this can shed a little light on matters..

Thanks,
Kerri
