Member Since: July 2004 Posts: 564 Send Message	Hi all Its January 1873, could be fifteenth, although that bits somewhat obscure too, father William Harvey, labourer, near (or rear) the Reformatory, Saint George, Bristol. The registrar was William Rees. He should have learnt to write more clearly! Lisa
