Sadly the enumerator or the person giving details didn't give the names of the children just the initials in the household of Ashton :(( |

he didnt have a middle name think it is unusual most people were given middle names around that time but think his mum sarah was illiterate maybe i know she was blind/deaf/dumb maybe thats the reason why or maybe just because he was born illegitimate ? |
