vespasian Report 30 Aug 2011 15:43

i am looking for the name of the wife of Henry Edward Stevens whom he married in Islington, London in 1895. Also the names of his his prarents. He was born in 1873 in islington.

I am doing this on behalf of a friend who has no access to a computer and, like me, is a pensioner on a tight income. we don't really want to spend money on what may well turn out to be a fruitless exercise.

Any asssistance would be very gratefully received

OK thanks.
So where did his name come from. I know you are doing this for a friend but his name must have come from somewhere.

He didn't die until 1939 but I can't locate him in 1911.

Astra,

His name came from a sheet of paper that my friend had had for some considerable time. He dug it out when he learned that I was researching my tree.
