Here's Harry, born post 1911 census

GATFORD, HARRY LESLIE DAVIS Order
GRO Reference: 1912 M Quarter in EAST PRESTON Volume 02B Page 589 Order

Another spelling of Davies this time, rather than the earlier Haines / Haynes. None of the Gartford children should have been registered with Davies - should always be the Mother's maiden name, but probably depended on how the question was asked.

The family leaving for Australia:


Walter Edward Gatford
in the UK, Outward Passenger Lists, 1890-1960
Name:
Walter Edward Gatford
Gender:
Male
Age:
43
Birth Date:
abt 1884
Departure Date:
9 Jun 1927
Port of Departure:
London, England
Destination Port:
Melbourne, Australia
Ship Name:
Balranald

Master:
Captain W P Townshend

He's with Mrs Rose Charlotte. 62 (is that right?), Harry Leslie. 15 and Louisa Rose. 20.

Do you have Edward and Rose's marriage certificate. If not you need it for Edward's age, address, occupation and the name and occupation of his Father.

There are many Edward Davies. They married after the 1891 census and he is missing from the 1901.

Rose married using just her first name. Maybe Edward had a second name to help locate him that he didn't use at marriage?

Find My Past has some Boer War records, if that's where he was, but unfortunately scanty personal / identifying information on them.

If Rose was correct in 1911 saying she had had 8 children, then that would have included both marriages.

There appear to be 3 Gatford children, so perhaps 5 with Edward Davies was correct?

The family in 1911 in Worthing, Sussex:

Walter Gatford 27

Albert Davies 18
Victoria Davies 13
Henry Davies 10

Rose says she has had 8 children, 7 still living. Since there are only 4 Davies children here perhaps there were only 5 originally.

Marriage to Walter is in Sussex
