Neither Horace, Robert or Julia come up on the Genes Reunited transcription of the 1901 Census for England & Wales.

On the 1891 Census, the family are to be found at 194 Caister Road, Yarmouth.The family was made up of
Robert J, age 43(?), an Inspector of Weights & Measures who was born Yarmouth.
Julia E, age 41, born Yarmouth
Herbert R, aged 18(?), Clerk to Town Surveyor, born Yarmouth
Ernest E, aged 16(?). Assistant in Public Library, born Yarmouth
Ada J, aged 12, born Yarmouth
Sidney J, aged 9, born Yarmouth
Harold M, aged 5, born Yarmouth
Horace M , aged 3, born Yarmouth

There were 56 individuals listed on the 1901 Census with the surname Buddery. Most have connections with the Yarmouth area. The CWGC has only one other Buddery listed as a casualty in WW1, and they too come from the Yarmouth area, and they would die barely a fortnight later, relatively close by.
