Did Alfred Noyes have any brothers or sisters?

Answer 1

Alfred Noyes appears on the 1891 census with his parents Alfred and Amelia living at 17 Pier Street, Aberystwyth. He is the oldest of four children - Alfred aged 10, Henry aged 8, Maud A. aged 6 and Walter B. aged 2. The gap between Maud and Walter would suggest that his mother lost achild in the interim years as it was usual for families to have children every 2 years.

The 1901 census shows Alfred Noyes (an Oxford Undergrad) now living with his parents at 19 Pier Street in Aberystwyth. Also living in the house are his sister Maud, then aged 16 and a brother Walter aged 12. Henry does not appear in the household, although further research could be carried out to see whether he left home or had perhaps died in the years between 1891 and 1901.
