I haven`t been able to find the family in the 1911 census.

They had 2 children both baptised in Woolaston:

Jesse bapt 14 April 1889

Emily bapt 27 March 1887

There are also 2 burials in Parkend

Thomas buried 5 July 1919 aged 58

Harriet buried 22 Nov 1919 aged 75

A Family Tree on Ancestry seems to have the required family in Woolaston in 1901 and also gives Thomas James' death as 1921.
Parish records have a death for a Thomas James in Woolaston in 1919 aged 62 which seems to fit.

Keziah James is recorded as aged 54 in 1901 - to have survived to 1947 she would have reached 100 - not impossible but unlikely.

I can't add any more than that at the moment I'm afraid,

I am looking for the Death of Keziah James. Keziah was Married to John Hopkins (1860-1883) then to Thomas James (1884-?)The 1901 Census has them living in Brookend Woolaston but in the 1911 Census Keziah is marked as desceased.In 1934 Keziah re-appears in Penrose Street up until 1947. Was it the Same Keziah and What happened to her husband Thomas?

Kind Regards
Gareth
