Hi guys!
I wonder if someone could search the 1911 census for who was living at 31 Warrington Crescent which is in the maida vale/Paddington area of London. I know my Great grandmother lived there when she married in 1922, but I'm wondering if this might have been the family home of her husband?
Thank you,
Elliot

Thanks Shirley!
Not who I was hoping for but I appreciate your help!
By coincidence I've just seen another discussion you had with someone on here about childrens homes in the Paddington/Maida Vale area and it mentions a childrens home called Victoria orphanage in Shirlad rd which is just round the corner from Warrington Crescent, the address you kindly searched for me. The reason I mention this, is that my gt grandmother lived in Warrington Cres when she married and her son was given away to an orphanage and the proximity is very close! I know Barnardos do a search (I did that already and he wasn't there), can't look on the census's because it would have been during the 1920's. Any idea of how I could find out if he was at the Victoria or even any of the others?
