Thank you Astra. Not sure if its the same John Swales. Mine is born 1856

Can you following this family in 1871 to see if John Swales age changes to 1856
He became a tailor

Found a John George Swales born 1860

Im thinking William Robert Swales 1856 ( his birth is 1855) living in Whitby in 1881 And John Swales 1856 visiting might be cousins

Can you look for John born 1856 please to confirm

Thank you
