  6. 1911 Census - 149 the Vale Acton, Middlesex. 

    The 1911 Census information is from just searching for the family and not looking at the actual transcript. From this is can be seen that the family had moved from the Isle of Wight to Brentford, Middlesex. They appear to have had an additional child but the only Muriel I can find on the BMD born around 1908 is a Muriel Evelyn DIFFEY born December quarter 1907 Coventry district, Warwickshire. They could have of course been there in 1907 and in Brentford by 1911. Again I do not intend to look at the transcription or the actual census.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
