Hilda J. born SQ 1926 Edmonton Vol. 3a Page 1055
Victor W. born DQ 1928 W. Ham Vol. 4a Page 1

Pam, certificate ordered, thank you, should be here shortly, think i shall be ordering a few over the coming days, thanks for the above details, def have more hours in front of the computer to look forward to!
James, i am not sure if the name was re-used, i dont really know what that means, however Pam has found a William, and the aunty remembers 1 boy and 2 girls, however, i cannot put 2+2 together as i have made that mistake on the Barclay side before. just a case of ordering the certs to have the proof.
this is hard work? enjoyable though.

Can't find a Henry Barclay on the 1881 census...so you need marriage certificate to go backwards.

Julie and Pam,
Great effort, great results I hope.
I found that Death Cert can give more verifying details e.g.
Living Children names and ages, age at death, where born, spouse if survived, where born etc then go to appropriate Census records.
Have you got your "Tree" on GR started with yourself first and as much as is known by living relatives.
