I'm looking for birth of Horace Horn, 1838/9, Feltham, Middx on census. On BMD there is a possibility, Q1 1838, St Giles & St George. Is anyone familiar with London districts to help confirm this may be the correct registration?

Ann, if you just click on the reg. district - in this case St.t Giles & St George - you can get info about where is covered.

Births Mar 1838
HORNE Horace St.Giles & St.George 1 65

Researching:
Myatt, Hanks, Eccleston, Powell, Clungunford, Birmingham

Thanks Jan, I did try that.
It only comes up with Holborn or Bloomsbury. I know the reg districts have changed throughout the years and was hoping for something nearer before I spend my money on a cert!

On the 1901 & 1871 it says Feltham....so what does it say on the other census as you haven't said

Also did he marry, if yes whats his Dads name

Sorry to you all. My connection went down.
Horace is only on 1871 & 1901 census. I think, 'maybe', he married Sarah Hedges 1882 Chelmsford and Patience Smith Sept 1863 Kingston, Surrey(She died age 30 yrs old).
There is a possibility he was also called Horatio.

Joseph. I saw this christening, Horace was a travelling hawker, and the fathers name just does not fit.

I think I will take a chance & send for the 2 marriage possibilities which will have so much more info.
Thanks to you all, if you have anymore ideas, they are welcome.
I'm off out for 3/4 hours, so I'll pick up any messages later.
