Hello

I have only just treated myself to the 1911 Census Subscription and found that a part of my tree is missing two children.
I am looking for children on a Robert and Ellen Button (have also yet to find her maiden name) I have found the following children
Anna 1871
Charles 1874
Ellen 1875
Robert 1878
Louisa 1879
Emma 1883-1895
Lily 1886
Harry 1893-1917

From information on the 1911 census they had 10 children and 7 were still alive in 1911 and 3 had died. As Emma is the only one I have found who had died I am guessing that there was two children that I totally missed and dont really know where to start to find them. I cant find them on any census between 1871 and 1911 so I can only assume that they were born and dies between the census years.
Has anyone got any ideas on how to find these children.
Many thanks in advance
Leanne

You could look on FreeBMD for births and deaths together (just highlight both births and deaths) and it will give all information together.

Married 40 years - this would be their marriage

Marriages Sep 1870 (>99%)
Button Robert Woodbridge 4a 987
Taylor Ellen Woodbridge 4a 987

This might be the marriage, in same registration area

Thanks for the replies :) I had narrowed the marriage down to one of two and Ellen Taylor was one of them so thank you for being able to confirm that :)

Lynne, with the children I have just had a quick look on FreeBMD and there is a few children in the Woodbridge district who were born and died at a young age. I might have to have a closer look at that tomorrow when I am a bit less tired and try and work out when there was some gaps and it was possible to have had another child.
I have not been doing this that long, so sorry for the questions but with no mothers maiden name being available, is there any other way to confirm these would be the right children without ordering certificates??
