Very possibly my grand mother in 1911 - however my mother refers to uncles Harry and Jack Clark. I wonder if there were other brothers to Henry and John. I guess Harry could have been short for Harold?

but my subscription doesn't allow me to view, so can't say if it is your Thomas Henry Morgon!

What was your Grandmothers name, maybe I can find them in 1911 census!

Yes, could be but not convinced. The word does not look like Sydney. If he was in Australia he must have come back as my grand mother was born in 1905 in Ealing. Her christening date was 7/7/1905

If this is Australia, could the name not be Sydney?

Here is a challenge. I have a copy of Certificate of Marriage 'Schedule E' (19 Victoria No 30).

The marriage took place on 10th September 1889 at St Michaels Church, 'Sydwry' between Thomas Henry Morgon, hairdresser Sydwry and bachelor & Julia Newitt, Puridli Life 'Sydwry', Spinster.

Apologies but I can't make out the writing and there is a word which appears to be 'Sydwry'. It could be Sydwuy or Sydwry, or even Lydwny ..... however I can't find it on the internet.

The clergyman was Edward David Headguide and the marriage took place at the Church of England at St Michael's Church, Sydwry.

The witness's were Wm R Barrister and Lucy L Morgon.

I believe that Thomas Henry Morgon was also husband to Alice Morgon and their daughter was Alice Henrietta Morgon (my grandmother).

My mother seems to think that Thomas Henry Morgon had a barber's shop in Sydney, Australia ...... not sure if this is true but I do have a photo of him standing outside a shop with his name above.

Can anyone throw some light on this?

Many thanks
