I have been able to find most of my family, most of the time, but two branches, one from each side, have failed to fulfil their legal obligations - or maybe they were both on a desert island somewhere.
Surely the non appearance of one lot, who could possibly be among the 'lost' entries, cannot apply to a totally different family.
I'm looking for them in 1901 ONLY. I have the rest, including 1911.

Horace Colonel Bradford(1850-1936),
his wife Elizabeth, formerly Harris, (1951-after 1911).
Their children
Ernest Alfred Bradford (1877-1960). He married in 1905, and is not the one at Hackney or Reigate.
Elizabeth Grace Bradford (1883-1965). She married in 1907.
I have the other children, who were Horace, Albert and Frederick, the other brother, Leonard, died in 1895.
This family lived in Southwark, Bermondsey, Rotherhithe and finally Bromley. and were all associated with the timber industry as timber merchants with own yards in London.

The other family are
Arthur Enoch Chilvers (1856-after 1911)
his wife Elizabeth, formerly Skoulding (1857-after 1911)
Their children
Arthur S, or maybe T, Chilvers (1875-?).He married in 1903.
Ellen Chilvers (1878-after 1891)
Beatrice Chilvers (1882-after 1891)
Mildred Chilvers (1885-after 1891)
Ethel Winifred Chilvers (1887-after 1911) I have her with the family in 1911.
Mabel Chilvers (1889-after 1911) I have her with the family in 1911.
Edith Chilvers (1877-after 1891)

I have found another son Walter Chilvers in 1901.
this lot lived in Norfolk, Tivetshall, Dickleburgh, Norwich, and short time in Herringfleet, Suffolk, with father's job as 'plate layer'.

I would appreciate any help in finding these elusive people in 1901 only.

Hi Sandra

You're welcome.

Have been looking for your other missing family, the Bradfords, but I can't find them anywhere.

Off to bed now. Will have another go tomorrow, unless someone else has found them in the meantime.

Hi sorry I can't find them either. I looked at the address from 1891 and 1911 but no joy...where are they...
