Can anyone throw some light on a John Henry williams born around 1910cc mother could be one of the King sisters from Loppington or their half sister Sarah Jane Williams born to their Mother before she married. Sarah was born 1864 at Welleshampton. John could of been born in Shropshire or London He could of been born from 1911 to 1920 the photo I have looks to be about 1912 ish. Thanks Val

There are probably 20 to 30 John Henry Williams born each year.
Is Sarah, 1864, the grandmother, and was her married name King, maiden name Williams?
Thanks

Sarah Jane Williams was the grandaughter of James.Williams. The Sarah Williams aged 38 was Sarah Jane's Aunt. 1871 census. Sarah Jane's mother was Caroline Sarah's sister. Dont know what happened to Sarah Jane after the 1871 census whether she married or not. She was still around in 1939 and she was called Jenny.
