This Percy is the right date and seemingly Eastington is near Stonehouse but it is just a wild guess and you would need the marriage certificate. I can't seem to find a marriage for them?

Hi Shirley and Liz

Thankyou very much for doing that for me.
They are my husband's grandparents.
brian's mum couldn't remember whether her Dad was Percy or Percival.
That has really helped

Elizabeth, on this census the name Walter was written above the name Charles. Was he actually Walter Charles Price?

You have just saved me!!
I was looking at the wrong census.

I can't find Charles in the 1881 census yet.

I am not very good at this yet.

Sorry.

Thankyou for finding the 1891 details

Free BMD has the marriage of Walter Charles Price and Caroline Butlin, Sep. Q 1885, Stroud which covers Stonehouse. (6a 523)
Marriage is a little late though for Willie J.

Hi margaret

Thankyou for that
I can't find him on the 1881 census.
It may well be just me.
As I said i am not great at this yet!

MargaretM Report 11 Dec 2007 19:46

Uh oh! Can't find the birth of William J. Price but there is a William John Butlin in Stroud. 2 of them actually, one in 1883 and one in 1885. Do you suppose they waited until they were married and re-registered him? No that doesn't make sense, if they did that they would give him the name Price, wouldn;t they?
