Find Ancestors

My step fathers grandfather is causing us all a headache. His name was Jonathan Kid Appleby born c1880. He married a lady called Florence Harborn. The spent some time in Alexandria Egypt and believe that Jonathan is buried there. They had 3 children, Florence 1906 who was born in Egypt, Henry 1910 and Gordon 1911 who were born in Harpenden, Herts.
Any info on Jonathans or Florences lives would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Vera but I have investigated this one and sadly it isn't him. There were hundreds of John/Jonathan Appleby's in the Newcastle area but we think he may have been born around the Hertfordshire area.

Ancestry has that 1891 household as Harlow but all in all I think it is Harbour

Marriages Jun 1875
Bowen William Maidstone 2a 890
GOODAYLE Agnes Maidstone 2a 890 <<<<<
HARBOUR George Henry Maidstone 2a 890 <<<<<
JOHNSON Emily Maidstone 2a 890

there is no trace anywhere of a Florence Harborn so it seems both of them must have been born out of England


Nicola I'm not following you around, lol but have you checked back to the Goldsmiths ?

the only Gordon Appleby between 1909 and 1915, maybe he also was born outside England?

no births to that marraige it seems .... oh but of course, the Gordon born i in Medway in 1910 is probably one
