The couple from the marriage above travelled to Canada in 1920. On the Canada, Ocean Arrivals (Form 30A), if it's the same person, Louise gives her age as 39 (b1881) and nearest relative as Mother- Mrs Wilkins, Leicester,

Yet another PM!

Hi, that is correct it is the Grandfather they cannot find any where other than on my friends fathers b/cert (Robert L), it is he that changed the name for some reason to Hornby , They moved to Leicestershire in the late 40/50's which is where i live.
Apparently when he was alive he would not speak about why the name was changed for some reason, it was never spoken about as so many other things at that time, but oh dear have i found out so much doing my family trees!!.

Thanks for that, Chris.

Don't know why they don't offer the same search function as on 1901 and others. :-S

The Morgans were also there in 1901

Was that using the new search, Chris?

I always use the old one.............

Can't search 1911 by address on FMP

In 1901, four families were living at the address now given.

PM received

I have just spoken to my friend, the birth Cert for Robert L Hardy-Dawson,details are Sub District St Lukes,London, born in the City of London Ly-ing Hospital, on Sept 11th 1912.
Fathers name Robert Hardy-Dawson Occupation Hairdresser Journeyman. Mother Louisa Hardy-Dawson formerly Hutchinson living at 341 City Road Islington (not as previously said 241).
Visited the area sometime ago which was a children's nursery..
No one seems to be able to find a marriage or birth certificate details, i certainly haven't . They do know the surname was changed for some reason during Robert L Hardy-Dawson's lifetime to Hornby with possible connections to Goole in Yorkshire. Thankyou for any help, if you do get back to me during the next week i am sorry i cannot reply am on holiday


SO......the birth address was NOT for the grandfather.

Didn't see how it possibly could have been

Until you find the marriage of the parents ( not that there seems to be any record, so perhaps it occurred either in Scotland or Ireland ), you won't know how old the father was.

Does the birth cert actually say 'formerly' Hutchinson?

What was the father's occupation?

And the address on the birth cert......................

Have you tried looking for his death?

The 1912 birth is the only instance of the surname.........

Thankyou Jacqueline, my friend has the birth certificate of the 1912 birth which is his father Robert L Hardy-Dawson stating that the mothers maiden name was Louisa Hutchinson.
They are trying to find the birth certificate of Robert Hardy-Dawson ( the father of the above Hardy-Dawson).
Some how, maybe from family they know he was born 241 City Road Islington , that is the only info they have
They and I have tried many sites with no success.
Thankyou for your help.

Jacqueline Report 30 Jun 2015 12:40

The generations are getting mixed up here, I reckon

It's unlikely - to say the least - that father and son married women with identical names

Advise your friend to buy a copy of the 1912 birth cert. It will name the father - also say whether Hutchinson was the mother's name when she married

The only other option is to wait for the 1921 census...........in about 7 years' time
