hopefully, yes they are the same one, hadn't really thought of it like that (Nothing like the obvious !) I have his birth recorded as Ernest Job, and thought 'Job' an name in its own right (pronounced 'Jobe') thank you all, think thats resolved it! Jess

Isaac is a bit of a mystery - he has a wife Elizabeth in 1871, with sons Ernest and George (but no Joseph) he is own his own with George and Joseph in 1881and no Ernest he is completely alone in 1891 and appears as Father to head Ernest in 1901, but never noted as a widow! bet that is my George owen Collins, thanks jess
