Trying to find Robert Newland b Ockendon Essex 1899.

Believe he was staying with his father's sister and her husband in either the Walthamstow or Lambeth area. Name may be spelt slightly differently. I had once located the record but have sadly misplaced.

Also Josiah Newland, Robert's father b c1877 Bulphan Essex. This one may be harder but probably in the same areas of East London.

Many thanks
Mark

What are the Father's sister and husband's names?
Thank-you

That's the problem - I can't recall. But I know i was able to identify Robert. He was certainly in Lambeth in 1913.

Have you found them in 1901?

Have you got his birth on free bmd?
Thanks

Brilliant! This was what I remember. Many thanks. Robert's parents had separated by 1911 and I think Josiah will prove very hard to find. But many thanks again.
