Thanks for that Astra, I just wondered it there was suddenly going to be something to tie in to Latchford. These wouldn't work out.
I suppose he may have been lodging there at time of the wedding.

There is a Private tree on Ancestry that has him. Would you like me to see if I can contact the tree owner and see if they are willing to share any information?

Hi
Is there anyway of checking the census by address and see if you can find 29 Colombia Road on a couple please ?

Linda

Linda Report 10 Jun 2010 13:52

Thanks Astra,
I think I may have to give up on this branch of my tree.

He may have been born under a different name and his mother later married a Latchford or he may have been told as an adult that his father was called Latchford and changed his name accordingly. Just don't know I'm afraid. I will have another look later if no-one has found him but I have to go now.

Is there anyway of checking ? Can you find his Mother ?
Do you mean he is not really a Latchford or that his mother was a Latchford ?
It is odd that There is nothing on the earlier census for Samuel as a small boy at home with his parent isn't it.

There is a possibility of course that he may have been illegitimate and made up both his father and his occupation.

Can you find a death to match before the wedding 1st Dec 1889.

Astra

Astra Report 10 Jun 2010 13:23

It's very difficult to read so he may not be but there is something added at the end of his name which I can't make out.
