Eliza, wife, b1854, Thornes Wfd Haydn son b1877 Assistant shipping clerk bThornes Ernest D, son b 1880 Thornes. Lilian dau. b 1883 Thornes. Harold son b 1890 Thornes. (Thornes was a separate part of Wfd at the time later absorbed into Wakefield City. Ernest Darley Stakes b Jan-Mar 1880 Wakefield 9c 82: Lilian Stakes b Jul-Sep 1883 Wfd 9c 66. unable to find Haydn Stakes birth details in BMDs reference no's are GRO southport indexes which are needed to order certificates I could not positively identify Joseph's DOB for 1855 or Haydn (spelt thus in census). you might find them via free BMD also Harold born either Q2/Q3 1890 or Q1 1891. Hope this helps Stuart Cowgill (Gordon Cowgill on this site) or [email protected]
