Calkin, Oscar (affectionately known as "Pop Pop") Fourth of 8 children born to Oscar and Harriett Occupation as declared in 1901 census = "Picture Framer". The 1901 census has Oscar and his wife living at 3, Hyde Terrace, Nottingham. In a letter written by my grandfather (Arthur Calkin) of 12th Nov. 1952 it would appear that Oscar was living at: 110, Wellington Street, Long Eaton, Nottingham.
	Born:	30.08.1880	at 22, Queens Gardens, Nottingham.
	Married:	c. 12.1900	to Mary Langford registered in Nottingham.
	Died:	c. 12.1963	Aged 83, registered in Ilkeston
Calkin (nee Langford), Mary (affectionately known as "Mam Mam") The 1901 census rather interestingly has Mary as born (and I quote) : Where born = France Calais British Sub. But I don't presume this to mean a submarine just off Calais, but rather in Calais as a British Subject. It is reported that Mary's was born as Marie Le Langton but changed her name to Langford when moving to England.
