The surname is only shown against John and there are not ditto marks.

For some reason that census does not appear on FMP.

Its quite a complex page. If you care to PM your Email addy, I'll send it to you.

Thats really helpful - many thanks

I notice there are several 'married' children - but all are shown with their maiden names - ie Lizzie Fowkes, Annie Fowkes etc.....bit of a pain when trying to move forward .........also several crossed out - perhaps John & Susan realised that they were not actually still living at o=home with them ! ? We can only assume that Joe Fowkes is Johns son ( as it doesnt say )?
However, my count makes that 7 children for John & Susan and yet they say 9 born & only 6 living - bit of a puzzle........

John, head,59, window cleaner
Susan, wife, 55, married 35 years, 9 children, 6 still living
Susannah, dau, 21, single, wool spinner
Lizzie, dau, 39, married, at home, 9 children, 8 still living
John, son, 30, soldier
Annie, dau, 20, married, at home, 1 child still living
Florrie, dau, 18, single, wool spinner
Ethel, dau, 13, school
Joe, son, 2
Henry, son, no age given

Names of children Lizzie, John, Annie, Joe and Henry have been crossed out. Enumerator has said there are 4 females and 1 male.

Says there are still 6 children living but there are 8 on the form (before crossings out); could Lizzie and Annie be daughters-in-law?

These are the children on the 1901:

Susan Fowkes 11
Annie Fowkes 9
Florry Fowkes 7
Ethel Fowkes 3

Thank you 'Potty' ...........actually, I have Susan, Annie, Florry, Ethel, Lizzie, all daughter of John & Susan...... then John, Henry as sons......... I think Joe may be a grandson perhaps?

Many thanks for looking............
