Finding it difficult to trace Henry John Parker born around 1850 London maybe Islington. I sent for daughters birth cert to find his name but havent got any further! Would be so pleased for any help.

His daughter was Sarah Margaret born August 1874 Islington.mother Sarah Ann Evans. Father a plasterer. I suppose that could be him 1871 as its in Islington. They had another daughter Florrie or Florence.
Thankyou

Hi Ann
Thankyou so much for your help. I think it is going to be too hard to find his parents so will perhaps try to find Sarah ann instead !! although Evans will probably be just as difficult..

Kind regards
Dorothy
