Yes - the Perry's are O.K., but we are hinging the proof on George Martin at the address on 1901 being the same as the address for Henry at marriage when it wasn't 'quite' ???

sorry started looking but lost connection so you outran me.

i did look at fmp address search though

1891 Queensland square was quite posh
few residedents but include marqis of Salibury

1911

more residents per house

occupations include launderess street artist costermonger etc so a definite downturn

Did anyone notice on the marriage cert that Henry actually signed his name Pescott......or has it been mentioned already?

jax

No,that has not been mentioned Ja...x ,but then again I didnt fine scan it as I am just enjoying watching you lot at work,in between doing stuff here at home..;)

He also signed it Harry, not Henry !!

Ummmm yeah after making it 125% bigger it does look like Harry obviously a name he preferred to be called as in later census's

jax

That is now the 3rd posting of his birth I believe??

Lol, so he did Dee! :-))

(I'm sure I remember looking for a Butcher George Prescott before in the past, not sure of the outcome, seems to ring a bell)

Chris :)

Mind you, at my age many bells are a ringin', lol.

OK-re the address on the marriage cert> I'm pretty sure it's the same.

doh.
i was getting a quick overview.
still changes in demography though

I think Sherbitshandy is going to get confused with all this lot, so maybe we should wait until she returns to see what she would like us to do

jax

Good idea,jax!!!!!

Maureen

If you are saying that Queens Square actually became Queensland Square, then I am happy with all that we have found - George Martin IS, in fact, the 'culprit !!!


Pheeewww !!!!!!!!!!!

I'm OUT now for personal reasons

I think it would be a good idea for Sherbitshandy to order that birth cert for Henry Martin Pescott and when it arrives we can take it from there???

Poor Sherbit - she won't know her head from her tail at the moment !

Sorry Sherbit!
