Twin with Solomon
Occupation:
** The transcribed occupation of Farmhouse Labourer makes little sense to me and I haven't found any reference to it elsewhere. But having looked at the image, I can make no better sense of it. Farmhouse servant would make more sense, although in 19th C England you would imagine that position being held by a woman, Needs more research.

2. John Ernest Postins (1.Ernest1) was born about 1898 in Wndsley, Staffordshire, England. Other Events and Attributes:
- Census: 1901, 12 Bromley Lane, Wordsley, Staffordshire, England
- Census: 2 Apr 1911, 18 - 19 Stourton Road, Kinver, Staffordshire, England
Notes:
Name:
Up till the 1911 Census we had this boy's name as John E but that Census listed an Ernest Postins who was born the same year as John E. It is assumed that the E represented Ernest and that, in the interim, they had started calling him by his second name.
Another possibility was that Ernest and John were twins (there father was a twin) but I ruled that out on the grounds that in the 1911 Census stats section they said they had 6 children and all were still living. We have accounted for all six
