Despite my best efforts(trying all the many children's names Too!) I have been unable to locate my grandfather & family in the 1911 Census. The only located mamber is my late Aunt Victoria Fanny Dawes who was residing with her Farrow grandparents in Wells next the Sea, Norfolk.
The others should be in the Southend on Sea area. The postal address is now Westcliff on Sea, but at the time was probably Prittlewell. The address most likely 211 West Road. However it could have been around that area, saw Shakespeare or Gainsborough Drive. It could be that granfather was 'having a bolshie' and didn't fill it in.... Leonard Sunny John Dawes Kate Elizabeth Dawes Benjamin Dawes etc. etc.
Any spare eyes would be appreciated as you go about your regualr searching/ Many thanks Georgiana

Dawes query - Southend on Sea- 1911 Census
Thanks everyone, goodness knows who filled the form in!! George was my Great Grandfather... Kates's husband was Leonard Sunny John Dawes (his branch of the family added an E some time previously). Jaxx, since you obviously know the area, you or your family may remember 'SUNNY DAWES LIMITED' occupying the block of land between Shakespeare and Gainsborough Drive, which is I beleive now a tyre fitters. ThaNKS AGAIN

Welcome to the boards, Linda.
It's six years since anyone added anything to this thread, before your reply, and it's unlikely that any of the contributors will be looking here for further replies now.
You can try sending a private message to Georgiana, who is the person asking about this family - just click on her name at the top of her post. If she still has the same email address she registered with GR, she will be notified that she has a message from you, and may reply (if you're lucky!)
I know Flick and Jax were regular users of the boards, at least until fairly recently, but don't know about Georgiana.
