Hi all I cannot find my great grandad WILLIE CARRELL or his wife ADA and daughter ELLEN/NELLIE, on the 1901 census. Willie was born in 1880 so would have been about 21yrs, Ada was born in 1882 and Ellen in 1900.They lived in the islington area. Ada died in 1901 but it was december and i am guessing the census was taken before december. Any suggestions would be great, its been driving me a bit mad!! Kind regards Kelly
