Would anyone like to try to find John Watson Lund for me please ?
I have him with his parents John Watson Lund and Jane as an errand boy in 1861 in Rusholme, Lancashire, and I think he is an assistant master at Mintholme College in Lancashire in 1881 though this is a bit speculative as place of birth is given as Bradford and YOB as 1851 but I can't find him in 1871 or after 1881.

I would be very grateful for any help.

Thanks

Jean

would have been good to know his baptismal location at the beginning

He was born in Crosshills in Yorkshire which is between Skipton and Keighley in the parish of Kildwick. The nearest city is Bradford which is why I think the 1881 entry may be him.
