I cannot seem to find the family on the 1901 census, they are on the 1891 and the 1911 ones, anyone got any ideas apart from they might have been in the workhouse.

1891 census shows them living at Nebo Row, Glyncorrwg, Neath:
Jarred (31), born in Monmouthshire, occupation coal miner
Elizabeth (30), born in Monmouthshire
Elija (11), born in Glamorganshire (marked as Eliza on census)
William H (9), born in Glamorganshire
Emily L (6), born in Glamorganshire
Ada (3), born in Glyncorrwg, Glamorganshire
Elizabeth (0), born in Glamorganshire

1911 census living at 9 Dunraven Street, Glyncorrwg:
Elizabeth (49), widow, born in Blaina, Monmouthshire
Arthur (19), born in Glyncorrwg, Glamorganshire, coal miner hewer
Jared (16), born in Glyncorrwg, Glamorganshire, coal miner hewer
Annie (14), born in Glyncorrwg, Glamorganshire
Frederick (13), born in Glyncorrwg, Glamorganshire, at school

I have tried all of the forenames, shortened versions of names, even tried without a forename. (The father's name seems to vary on each census, from Jarrat to Jarred).

Sorry, I mispelt the town in the title :-(

Oh, you angel, thank you - no wonder I couldn't find it. Common sense should have told me that if first names are not spelled correctly it could be done with the surname.
Thanks again
