   Hello Nigel   
      
   Thank you for your thoughts and research. As I wrote, I have a reasonably full   
   record of their lives before and after the 1911 Census. The only problem is   
   where they were when the 1911 Census was taken - apparently abroad. So I'm   
   looking for ways to pin    
   that down.
