Can anyone tell me if the Charles Edward Allen who married Beatrice M Johnston 1923 in Leicester, was born in Cawnpore India. The Charles Edward Allen that I'm looking for was born in India and father was Thomas.
Regards
Aspen

Charles Edwd Allen
in the 1901 England Census
Name:
Charles Edwd Allen

abt 1891

Walter Gabitas 9
Kate Gabitas 7
Robert Allen 7
Leslie Allen 9/12

Of course his spouse is not Walter Gabitas. The 2 Gabitas boys are listed as sons-in-law meaning stepsons. Curiously Kate Gabitas is listed as daughter not daughter-in-law. Leslie is actually 1 year & 9 months.
