	I'm not seeing a Richard Grant Watson on any census records. Does your SIL have any idea where or when he was born? Or where and when he died?

	Going back to the 1901 census I posted for Lily Irving with parents.... Thomas D Irving and Isabella........ Here is the family in 1911 Richard Grant Wats in the 1911 England Census Name: Richard Grant Wats Age in 1911: 21 Estimated birth year: abt 1890 Relation to Head: Boarder Birth Place: Penrith, Cumberland, England Civil Parish: Carlisle County/Island: Cumberland Country: England Street address: 5 Harold Street Marital Status: Single Occupation: Grocery Warehouseman Registration district: Carlisle Sub-registration district:St Cuthbert Household Members: Thomas Donald Irving 45 Isabella Irving 44 Margaret Irving 24 William Irving 21 Almina Irving 18 Mary Irving 15 Thomas Donald Irving 13 John Irving 11 Albert Irving 9 Lelina Irving 7 George Irving 5 Herry Irving 3 Isabella Irving 7/12 Richard Grant Wats 21 <<<<<< If you check out the image..........the ink is smeared and I think Richard Grant Wats is actually Richard Grant Watson.

	there is a Richard Watson born penrith but no middle name Births Dec 1889 (>99%) Watson Richard Penrith 10b 421
Member Since: June 2007 Posts: 31,288 Send Message	PricklyHolly	Report	19 Jul 2016 18:46
	I am guessing that Richard was later baptised with the middle name of "Grant" I am liking the 1912 birth for Isabella Watson......as that was the name of Lily's mother.
