My gx3 grandfather : Albert James Page 1841

ALBERT JAMES PAGE was born circa 1841 in Ore, Sussex (source : 1841, 1851, 1881 and 1901 census – he obviously messed up on the 1891 census and was out by ten years). On the 1841 census, age 10 months, he was living in Standens Road, Ore, Hastings, with his parents. On the 1851 census, age 10, a scholar, he was living in Ore Down, Hastings, with his parents.

He married HARRIET ? who was born circa 1842 in London (in Westminster according to the 1881 census, in Kennington according to the 1891 census).

On the 1881 census, his name is given as ALBERT JAMES PAGE and he is a 40-year-old general labourer living at 25 Brewery Cottages, Roebuck Yard, St Clements, Hastings. On the 1891 census, he gives his name as JAMES PAGE (which is how family members knew him) and he gives his age as 59, ten years more than the age he declared in the other censuses. In 1891, he is still a general labourer and is now living at 111 Athelstone Road, All Saints, Hastings (presumably Athelstan Road) with his wife and two nursechildren (carrying the surname ALLEN – the maiden name of his daughter-in-law) (source : 1891 census) . On the 1901 census, he is down to renting (presumably) two rooms at 46 North Lane, St Clement (Halton parish), Hastings with his wife, a house shared by the COLEMAN family (a 22-year-old plasterer, his wife and 1-year-old son). He is a 60-year-old navvy (source : 1901 census).
