William ALLEN
Set As Default Person -
Name William ALLEN Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Abt 1856 Longton, Staffordshire, England
- From the 1891 census where shown as aged 34
Probably
GRO ref: ALLEN, William q1 1856 Stoke T RD 6b 186; GRO online index does not show a mother's maiden name suggesting he was born illegitimate
- though he would have been 35 at the time of the 1891 census etc.
Gender Male Residence From 1911 to 1921 3, Stanier Street, Fenton, Staffordshire, England
- With his wife Caroline, 3 unmarried daughters Mary Elizabeth, Gertrude and Winifred and a granddaughter, Gwendoline Agnes Gotham.
Address clear on the 1911 census form. Part of the census form for William and his family (that showing place or work) is missing in 1921, and the address page seems to be mssing completely. However, the address for the following entry is 5, Stanier Street, and the one after that no. 7, which suggests William and family were still at no. 3. (FMP have some crazy address, with no apparent source!)
Occupation 1921 None - invalid Died Mar Q 1922 Stoke on Trent Reg Dist, Staffordshire, England
- GRO ref: Allen, William q1 1922 aged 65 Stoke T. RD 6b 341
(lots of deaths of William Allens, but this is the only one of the right age / in Staffordshire to fit with an 'Allen' buried in grave with an 'Allen' that fits as his widow and a 'Gotham' who fits as his young granddaughter)
Buried Mar Q 1922 Fenton Cemetery, Fenton, Staffordshire, England
- From Staffordshire Burial Index
