1891 at same address but place of birth given as Walthamstow, Essex


1911 William and Emma - 10 children born and 9 still alive, Have you found out which child had died ?


So what exactly are you wanting to find out about him ?

This rings a bell Stephen, I think you may have a previous thread?

If so can you add this query to it rather than start a new one, otherwise helpers will just be duplicating info already found :-)

Oh bother

Thanks for the reply Henry was registered in west ham in 1888,he was born 15 collingwood road walthamstow,we think the henry i have mentioned may be him,but we cant find out what happened to him after he was demobbed he didnt go to live with his parents in 15 seaford tottenham,we know he was in the services by refrences made by his brother francis,so if anyone can find out his debob address or where the medals were sent we would love to hear from you many thanks stephen marden
