Member Since: June 2003 Posts: 9,301 Send Message	Well in both 1881 & 1891 he has Bury, Suffolk. It's only 1901 that he's born London. So I'd go for Suffolk. Getting his marriage cert for father's name would be good.

Member Since: July 2007 Posts: 101 Send Message	Ladies, am confused! Where do you think Charles senior was born? On that 1901 census Charles junior was born in Blackfriars too when I have him as born in Christchurch, St. Saviour from his cert.

Member Since: July 2007 Posts: 101 Send Message	I have put messages out before on this family and would like to thank those that helped but I was on the wrong track.I have been looking for the birth of Charles Frederick Wright in 1879 in Southwark, Surrey. Finally got the correct cert and the father is also Charles Frederick and the mother is Emma. Problem is I cannot find anything on the family apart from 1881 census of Charles senior which looks like them. Got the marriage of Charles and Emma (Thornton) from the i.g.i. Can anyone please find any more than I have? It is such a common name that this family have taken me ages to find. Lynn
