You should be able to find more info if you can find him on a census (say the 1881 census on FamilySearch.org). When you find hime (hopefully at home with his family) that gives you a whole lot more names and dates. (There should be some hints along these lines in your Getting Started page on GR) Christine

The search for that surname is taking me to Cambridgeshire nearly every time. There was one for Bourne, Lincolnshire, 1901 Is this what you are basing your info on? George Setchfield 47 Bourne, Lincolnshire, England Head Walsoken Norfolk Mary E Setchfield 45 Upwell, Norfolk, England Wife Walsoken Norfolk William Burnham 22 Walsoken, Norfolk, England Boarder Walsoken Norfolk Ernest Setchfield 20 Christchurch, Norfolk, England Son Walsoken Norfolk Maria Setchfield 11 Emneth, Norfolk, England Daughter Walsoken Norfolk This is the only marriage that matches the wifes name above Russell, Mary Elizabeth 1874 June Wisbech Cambridgeshire Norfolk 3b 1031 Setchfield, George Isaac 1874 June Wisbech Cambridgeshire Norfolk 3b 1031 This certificate would give your their fathers' names.

Can't find any George born in Bourne, Lincs with a name like Setchfield. Have also tried Sechfield and Sedgefield without success. nell
