Indeed it is GlitterBaby, but alas - no wife. I am struggling to trace marriage details and birth details for the sons (and death details for Frederick).

Met today with a distant relative (whom I met online whilst researching my Mums side of the family) and she has hit a brick wall with these areas too .... and there was me thinking that two heads would be better than one!! x

My god, you guys are GOOD :-D

Without meaning to sound cheeky ... you can't find a marriage for Joseph Pedley Ablett can you? By the Census records he married between 1881 and 1891, moved from Lambeth/Surrey to Greenwich in that time, and had 2 children (Sidney and Frederick).

Thanks for anything else you can find, H x
