Hi Folks,
I am looking to trace Harry Towers, here's his birth reg;
Births Jun 1864 TOWERS Harry Mt Bosworth 7a 77
(spent too much already, so if I can get away without buying his birth cert it would be great)
here he is;
1901 England Census about Harry Towers Name: Harry Towers Age: 33 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1868 Relation: Head Spouse's Name: Sarah A Father's Name: William Gender: Male Where born: Ibstock, Leicestershire, England Civil Parish: Brinsworth Ecclesiastical parish: Rotherham All Saints Town: Canklow County/Island: Yorkshire Country: England Harry Towers 33 Sarah A Towers 32 Harry Towers 15 Georgeana Towers 3 Frederick Towers 2 William Bennett 82 <<<<<<<<< father in law Clary Towers 3 months
And again in 1911;
TOWERS, HARRY HEAD MARRIED M 46 COAL MINER CHARGEMAN LEICES IBSTOCK TOWERS, MARIA WIFE MARRIED 6 F 50 LEICES BARLESTONE TOWERS, FRED SON M 14 LEICES IBSTOCK TOWERS, GEORGINA DAUR F 13 LEICES IBSTOCK LIVERLEY, ARTHUR STEP SON SINGLE M 19 COAL MINER PONY DRIVER LEICES BARLESTONE LIVERLEY, WILLIAM GRANDSON M 8 LEICES IBSTOCK
His 2nd marriage;
Marriages Jun 1905 Liveley Maria Mt.Bosworth 7a 199 TOWERS Harry Market Bosworth 7a 199
Maria's son Arthur lively married my G Grandmother Selina Towers;
Marriages Mar 1912 Lively Arthur Towers Mt.Bosworth 7a 109 Towers Selina Lively Mt.Bosworth 7a 109
So what I'm trying to find out is, is Harry related to my line of Towers??? My Towers were born in Ibstock Leicestershire, the same as Harry.
Selina was born in 1891, her mother who was unmarried at the time she had selina was Clara Towers born 1875, and her father was William Towers born 1845 Ibstock leicestershire.
I can't find Harry prior to the 1891 census, any help would be great.
Hope I haven't confused you all too much.

Thanks PaulaW, not sure on the 1 though. Could I ask you to check this chap out for me;
1881 England Census about Henry Towers Name: Henry Towers Age: 16 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1865 Relation: Son Father's Name: William Mother's Name: Selina Gender: Male Where born: Ibstock, Leicestershire, England Civil Parish: Markfield County/Island: Leicestershire Country: England Street address: Sand Pitt Education: Employment status: View Image Occupation: Coal Miner Registration district: Market Bosworth Sub registration district: Ibstock ED, institution, or vessel: 4
I can't see a birth for him and I can't find him before or after the 1881 census, could Henry be Harry ?????
Thanks again, Dee xxx

Hi,
So in 1871 Selina and the children are mistranscribed, thank you for that.
I wonder if Henry is Harry??? If so then I can see the link to "my" Towers, just wish I could confirm it. Looks like i'm going to have to buy either a birth or marriage cert.
Many thanks again Tania and PaulaW
