Hi Glitterbaby
thanks again
I just cannot get to the bottom of this family mystery
Reginald Harold Edworthy b 1901 Paddington
birth cert gives father as James Edworthy (Commercial traveler) mother Mary Edworthy formally Edwards
on Baptism the cert for Reg father Reginald Edworthy ( Sailor) mother Mary Edworthy

on the 1911 census Reg is with is mother ? Mary Jane Pope nee Edworthy spinster when she married a Charles Pope 1908

why would there be a Edwards connection and to fathers names

Not that easy to do

Pot luck by selecting a year and area and then looking at the images and go forward or backwards to find the address

I hate to say it but you might want to try for poor little Win*s birth cert.

I'm not trusting a thing Mary Jane says at this point!
(If indeed it's the correct lady!!)

Hi
Every indication leads to Mary Jane Edworthy in the above census as Reginald show up with his mother? in the 1911 census
when Mary married Charles pope she is a spinster not a Edwards?
BUT
On Reginalds birth cert it give mother as Mary Edworthy formally Edwards

This is not making any sense !

Surely we must have different people here?

Where does your actual 'proof' stop? - Are you tracing back via Reginald, If so, what info do you have on him please?

Hi Maureen
Yes to both questions re Birth and Baptism records for Reginald Harold Edworthy 1901

Baptism gives more problems with my research
father given as Reginald Edworthy ? mother Mary Edworthy

there is another birth and Baptism for a Winfred Edworthy b1904 d 1904 on her Birth and Baptism records it gives a Reginald Edworthy ?

Hi Maureen thank you for your help

Yes on the birth records it gives James and Mary Edwards as parents for R H Edwards
But what does not add up is in the 1911 result for R H Edwards he is living with his mother Mary Jane Edworthy and stepfather Charles Pope they married 1908 on marriage record Mary Jane Edworthy is a spinster not Edwards

Why don't I see the birth???

Births Mar 1900
Edworthy Reginald William Crediton 5b 369

Births Dec 1901
Edworthy Reginald Harold Paddington 1a 38
(This one seems to be the son of Reg* a sailor and Mary).

"It is recorded on a birth record in 1901 for the birth of a Reginald Edworthy father James Edworthy commercial traveler"

Kind regards,
Maureen
