Find Ancestors

I am with you on this Kay,

I am happy that what we have found does all follow through, but I am NOT happy that this George Edgar is the father of Henry until we can find another link !

I will dig around a bit more!

The only George Ernest Davison that appears on FreeBMD is the one you found in 1862, but as we can't find either George or Henry in 1901 or a sign of a marraige or birth I am just a bit uneasy on presuming this is the correct George.

Particularly as Henry would appear to be born the year after George was single. This doesn't mean that it is incorrect but it would be useful to find another check other than George's middle name. I will continue to look

Hi Kay,

Just had a look at the marriage cert properly!
(Got so many its confusing!)

It states on there Henry's father -
George Edgar Davison (deceased)
Profession : Dairyman

This was 11th March 1913.

Hope this helps

Could you give the other details from cert also please - ages, addresses, witnesses.?

Did it give his father's occupation on his marraige record as I can't find them in the census together

Kay

Wow fantastic you guys are! Thank You!

As for Henry Davison - son of George

born around 1892

he got married in 1913 to Ellen Hoare at Dover Registry Office.

It stated on his marriage cert his occupation - Lance Corporal , 1st Battalion, Kings Own Royal, Lancaster Regiment.

Somebody did find me his medal roll card on Ancestry.

Cannot find a death for him or any more other info on him.

Regards

Donna

What info do you actually have on Henry please?

Considering Frederick John Wilks Davison's middle name, - I believe this would be the marriage of George's parents:

Marriages Mar 1859
Davison John Leeds 9b 356
Wilks Elizabeth Leeds 9b 356

Do you have a birthplace for Henry that would help with finding them both in 1901?

This would be the family on 1861 - father John is a Chemist

Are you sure you have the right person - He appears to be below in 1891 - listed as single - although I suppose he could have married post the census

Trying to find my g g grandfather on census, trawled for hours with no luck.

George Edgar Davison born around 1862 Hunslet
Definitely had a son Henry in 1892.

I cannot find any further details on spouse, marriage other children etc.

Your help would be appreciated.

Thank You.

Donna.
