YYYYYYeeessssssssssss !!

We ARE on to something here Maureen.

That was indeed Henry's address on marriage cert !!

Still not sure how to connect it all though - I have been going round in circles since 8am this morning !! (tee hee!!)

Dea x

Martin as a christian name was not too common back in the 1880's so to have it as his middle name indicating that was his father looks good....but could be wrong

jax

Edit well done Dea and Maureen looks like problem solved

Sorry - gonna have to take a little break - I am 'brain-dead' here !!

I WILL return !!

Dea Xxx

I'd be willing to make a small wager,jax!!! Good find on that one!

Maureen

So where is George in 1891?? (or did we find him already?). May have to join Dea on a break!

Maureen

I agree Maureen now you found who was living at that address in 1901

jax

The more I look,the more I think that name really should be Pescott!

Look at all those matching births in Islington!

Births Sep 1883
PESCOTT Annie Martin Islington 1b 411

Maureen

Cough cough...Who found the "Pescott" 1901 lot to set you all on the trail then...?

Polish,polish,pat ,pat..

But well done you other lot.....I suppose.

At least he knew who his father was it would seem...Like my Nan..And did the same as her by juggling the surname of father on marriage cert to be the same as his...

Halo polish where it's due! Hands it over to Fans.

I really am going on a break now!!!!!

Oh my word is that My Grt Grandas wifes father Fredrick Devan?? or Hugh Landell cos i dont understand this too much how its written out (ok am thick lol)

im in shock , what a lot of work you guys have done,your bound to be nakt

I really think the address on marriage cert and on 1901 census for George Martin(Butchers assistant )does it for me folks....Cant see how much more cut and dried it can be...

Sorry couldnt help out more but HID is away to Somerset for the day and so I have extra outside work to do...Soz...

Not that I was really needed after the 1901 Pescott census anyway..:)

Well done folks...

Just needs one of you to put it all into easy to follow wording now.:)

Like Henry/Harry Prescott/Pescott was ILLEGITIMATE but knew who his father was(bit of luck there) .....Take it from there folks....

Chris :)

Oooooooooo,I lived on Hornsey Lane Estate before Kingsdown Road ......

Feeding time starts now..

I believe we are right Fans but I DO like to be certain !! e.g.:

Re the 1901 address - 'slight' problem - 1901 was 10 Queensland Square - addresses on marriage cert were 96 Queensland Road and 10, QUEENS Square !!! - Needs confirming !!!

One or two other points need confirming too I am afraid !!

We all know by now just how easy it is to go along with something which looks 99.9% right, only to find it is in fact 100% wrong !!

Dea x

Haven't you all done well! Perhaps a wee something in the tea to revive you all!

Just thought I would throw this in - was Henry named for his paternal grandfather or uncle perhaps?
