Find Ancestors

Sorry Sue was tired when i read that message lol

You missed the little joke Becky...............i think you mean the 1861 census!!!! Tee Hee!

I would really appreciate it if anyone with access to Ancestry could look for Henry Matthew Davies in the London, England baptism and birth records 1813-1906 will hopefully be able to find out his parents from this please help x

I have found apossible 1961 census record for Henry Davies 1832, London but cant access it

Rebecca, can he be found on the 1961 census!!! choking over here! been there and done that! We all end up ever so "stir Crazy" on here!!

after checking with Sue who has been helping with this thread we dont think its him cause my henry was a printer and he was born in London but interesting if he can be found on the 1961 census because he was married in 1855 and they had a son Edward william in 1856

Thankyou for this!!

Still strange that they cant b found on census

In the hope that the Baptism details come up trumps for Edward William Davies. i am hoping these marriage details are for your Henry Mathew!!

Edward william born 1856 clerkenwell died 1921, he did the same job as his father. His wife wife was called Charlotte (she had been married before) then he married blanche theresa winter i have the marriage cert in 1895 which says he was a bachelor!! they had 8 children elizabeth, charles henry, leopold george, albert edmund, blanche, frederick, claude (my great grandfather) and ethel.

I know this is a few years out, but i thought it worth taking a note of just in case. I have people in my tree that went from the name Petchy then later to Peachey and Wing, later to Whing!

I am having a root round for you but as yet, can find nothing new. What info do you have about the son Edward William???

born in Clerkenwell his occupation was printer machine minder/journey man

Hi Rebecca, you say you found Henry on an 1891 and he was born in the same place. Do you mean Islington London? and what was his occupation?

Sue x

I have found him really difficult to find to i found him on the 1891 census when i had access to ancestry but he is just down as Henry Davies but he was born in the same place and hassame job, he was already a widow then to so i never knew what his wife was called because i havent found him on an earlier census, i also dont know if he had any more children besides Edward william

Having no luck here i'm afraid!

it says St Mary Islington Workhouse
registration district Islington
sub-registration district Upper Holloway
