A tree on ancestry says that Annie May Hayward was born in 1907


There are 2 registrations for births of Annie May Hayward between 1905 and 1908 on freebmd ..................


Births Jun 1907 (>99%)
HAYWARD Annie May Whitchurch H 2c 238 S


Births Dec 1907 (>99%)
HAYWARD Annie May Wandsworth 1d 691




You might have to splurge and buy both birth certificates to see if Henry Bruce is named on there

I was just curious ... I suspect that 'Haywards' may be an error as I don't think it's really a name

searching at freebmd there are only a handful of events with that surname

and you see things like a Herbert Haywards and a Mary Jane Haywards who both married but were never born under those names, and an Edward and a James Edward who were born but didn't marry or die, if you see what I mean

I tried looking for possible births for
Annie M Hayward
Annie M Haywood
or Annie M Avery
with mother Hayward or Haywood

but had no luck ...


in any case Gins seems to have a good lead with that death

i wonder if some one can seee something im blind to ,for a couple of years now i have been looking to see what happened to my Husbands uncle after 1911 ,
What i knowis
1888 Henry Bruce Avery was Born 32 Abingdon rd Southsea Hants

Lived with 1891
Mother Annie Avery nee Rowe born 1855 Isle of wight
Father Henry Avery Born 1855 Isle of Wight ===== Rn Engine fitter
Known as Bruce born 1888 Portsea

1901LIVED
34 Abingdon rd Southsea ==2 Doors up from 32
he was With his parents
known as Henry Avery born 1888
Brother Benjamin charles Born 34 Abingdon rd southsea

This house stayed in the family till 1967
1911
At this Adress Henry senior living with wife Annie mistakenly gave me a clue to where Henry was in 1911 .he put his children on the census then crossed it off
1911
Henry Junior was at Mertha Tidfil Glamorgan working as a collery worker above ground ====== listed as Henry Abery but its him
32 Chapel st Troedyrhiw

after this i dont know when he fathered a baby Annie May Haywards but in 1927 he was in Henry Seniors will and so was Annie may Haywards as his illigitimate Daughter .
cant find what happened to him after this .was he going as Henry or Henry Bruce Avery i have no leads at all .can anyone help please .
For Sure every thing here is correct but my husband who was born in 1946 diddnt even know he had a uncle or anything about his grand parents untill i started doing this
his Dad was Benjamin CharlesAvery 34 Abingdon rd untill 1965
many thanks Jn
