potty

i ws just looking at that and thinking the same

the older boy james aka hanry james is my gt grandfather i have all his info up until 1901 census, he married mary ann dibble and they went on to have & raise 10 kids

they married in 1881 so if sidney was theirs why did he live with his grandparents?

Here's something to think about...it's possible that although staying with grandparents at the time of the census, he actually was residing with his parents Francis and Mary.

Surely Rose would have been too young to be Sidney's (b 1882) mother? Have you found the older brother John on any census after 1881?

in 1891 & 1901 john & Ann have sidney nurton their grandson (aged 9 & 18yrs respectively) living with them

i have no idea whether this is francis's or rosinas child

any help in tracking these two down after 1881 would be appriciated
