A surname would be a good start :) |

The registration district for Fordham is Newmarket so that is right. Maybe William was born, for example, middle of October 1852 . I think you had to register a birth within 10 weeks. If this was done he could have been registered at the beginning of January 1853. Which would put it in March quarter. NEWMARKET Created 1st July 1837. In Cambridgeshire and Suffolk. Sub-districts : Bottisham; Burwell; Cheveley; Gazeley; Newmarket; Soham. GRO volumes : XIV (1837-51), 3b (1852-1930). Ashley, Bottisham, Brinkley, Burrough Green, Burwell, Cheveley, Chippenham, Dullingham, Fordham, Isleham, Kennett, Kirtling, Landwade, Newmarket All Saints (1837-89), Snailwell, Soham, Stretchworth, Swaffham Bulbeck, Swaffham Prior, Westley Waterless, Wicken, Wood Ditton |

As you didn't give a surname Catherine, a process of elimination tells me it's one of these two March 1853 Births Turner William Newmarket 3b 526 Harvey William Newmarket 3b 531 |
