Hi Athena and Georgina I also had found the 1880 birth but I think it's not the correct one as that would make him 15 when he married Grace in 1895. Of the two 1881 references I think the first is most likely him, but I'm puzzled as to why I can't find his birth. Thank you both. Ron

The only one I could see is for 1880: Name: George Thomas Swindell Year of Registration: 1880 Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec DISTRICT: Islington County: Greater London, London, Middlesex Volume: 1b Page: 250 ( Do you think his age could be wrong on the census? Athena

I have the 1901 census (ref RG13/207/47/22) for Stoke Newington for Geo Thos SWINDELL aged 32, born Islington, living with wife Grace, son Harold G and daughters Jessie D G and Gladys M. I have tried, unsuccessfully, to find the birth reference for Geo Thos Swindell (in theory, born 1869). Is anybody able to help with this please? Thanks in advance. Ron
