Many thanks to one and all for your efforts and replies to my postings for the Edwards family.At last I have now solved the mystery in my wifes family tree.Sidney George Edwards was in fact born Sidney Charter 1874 Dalston, Mddx.Sometime during his youth he got into a fight with an orator at Speakers corner, the orator fell and struck his head and died.Sidney fled the scene & escaped, later changing his name to George Sidney Edwards.My father in law told us this story some 25 years ago,but we thought he was joking as usual.Lengthy census searches and BMD records show the story to be true.Regards to all,Bernie. |
