Would like to hear from anybody who knows what became of Harry Morris, born 1885 in Margate, Kent.

His father was Frederick Owen Morris born 1853 in Rotherhithe, Surrey and his mother was Martha Pysden born 1850 in Margate.

He had an older brother, Frederick, born 1876 in Margate who i believed married a Henrietta Haines and had six children. Henrietta died in 1916 in Margate and Frederick then remarried to Alice Gertrude Bradbear in 1917 and had two more children, Doris Josephine born 1919, Woodbridge Suffolk and Irene May (my great grandmother) 1921, Woodbridge Suffolk.

Would love to hear from anybody who recognises any of this info!

I did find the family of 8 children of Frederick and Henerietta but the computer crashed. I think it was on 1851 census but I will check again tomorrow.

On 1901 Census - only Harry and his mum Martha. Their ages were 16 for Harry and Martha 51.

They lived at 11 Byson Road Margate.

Thanks Sue, but Frederick and Henrietta weren't born until the 1870's so it couldn't have been the 1851!

But i look forward to hearing from you tomorrow!
