I believe that Charles Baxter Farmer is my great great grandfather. I would be interested to hear from any other descendents of Charles.

Info might come from here:


Births Dec 1890
Farmer John Henry Lambeth 1d 385


in which case I'd guess that's Kennington, not Kensington. Like Grimely, not Grimley.

Trying to find ... descendants or ancestors, or both?

If you search at

http://www.freebmd.org.uk

you'll find a Charles Baxter Farmer born 1855 in Oswestry. Would that be him?
