NOTE Walter Savage says he was a farmer at Wootton (probably after his marriage), and that he was in the 1901 census..

NOTE the following is from Stephen Bartlett (Mar 2015). Living in Courteenhall, Northants with his wife Mary Ann (WoodWard) and two daughters (Caroline aged 11, born Jun 1879 Hardingstone 3B, 49 and Winifred aged 4, born Jun 1887 Hardingstone 3B, 37) at the time of the 1891 census (RG 12/1193/60 p.6). There is no sign of Robert [6081] and no relevant record of his birth in the GRO index, so I do not believe he was their son. This is supported by their entry in the 1911 census (RG 14/8381/RD 162 SD02 ED 6/Sched. 8), where they state that they have had two children (not three), both still alive in 1911. They live at “The Farm, Hardingstone”. He describes himself as “Farmer & grazier and brick & tile manufacturer”. William died in 1912 (Sep 1912 Hardingstone 3B, 30 - Age 68) and the exact date is given in the probate record as 11 July 1912. His wife survived him.
