I have a ancestry membership but the 1911 census does not help me. I am searching for Wheatley and Cheeseman. They were both in a caravan as fairground travellers and were living at Fairground Cock Meadow, Attleborough, Norfolk but there are about 9 different fairground cock details and have already spent my money and not found them on the proper main 1911 census website.
Spanishlady
Any other names, dates, places of birth? who are you looking for?
If you're looking for this one
he may have died.
have you tried these 2 1991 census summary books
Mr Cheeseman 4 2 Fair Ground Cock Attleborough, Norfolk
Mr Wheatley 6 3 Fair Ground Cock Attleborough, Norfolk
mm
Is this the Wheatleys mistranscribed ?

Hi,
I have just stumbled across this site by accident and was interested in your post regarding the name Wheatley.
I too have Wheatley in my family, my Aunt married Lord Alfred Wheatley, also a fairground showman.
Although I can find out about him, I am having trouble finding out about my Grandfather who sometimes travelled with him. I would love to know what he did. Several of my Aunts also were dancers on the fairground, and my own father and uncle did a bit of boxing. Again I'd love to know just what sort of dancing and what happened in the boxing booths.
Grandfather (and family) was William Waterhouse, although sometimes known as Ball.
The Ball is because his own Father died while he was quite young and Mother re-married James Ball (a hawker), therefore he was brought up as Ball.
I don't suppose you would have any information regarding this part of the family but I would love to hear if you do.
Regards
Kate
