Clara Emily Parsons

[Merry]

Clara is in Sheffield in 1911 with her son, William Edward Tyzack (?) Parsons aged 16 b Sheffield. Clara says married 31 years with four children of the marriage all still living. Presume she has included William in that! C has a lodger Joseph Hardy 43 single, b Sheffield.

In 1901 Clara has been mis-represented as aged 84! She has son Wm with her and this time she is the boarder in the house of Joseph Hardy and his father, William Hardy aged 73. They all live in Swinton, Yorks.

I can't find Clara in 1901, when she would have had William with her (presumably). William has a birth record, but no other trace. Presumably it was William who was killed in WW1.

I can't find Clara in 1891.

There are loads of people in Sheffield called Tyzack (in case one of them is William's father!)

This is son William's death:

Clara Emily aged 36 and son William E aged 10 sailed from Liverpool to NY i4 Oct 1905, 3rd class on the Baltic.

Obviously they returned before 1911, but am not sure when!
