He probably lived in South Wales for a time and may have been born there. The other possibilty is that he came from Gloucestershire, maybe the Forest of Dean. His son, my grandfather, was Sydney Thomas Oliver Hayward and he lived in the Forest of Dean when he was young as a domestic servant and later became a collier in Porth, South Wales.
