Once again Catherine Thankyou I don't think that's the one though

Can I ask why did you think he was from Wales.

George and Jane had a daughter elizabeth @ 1848in Portsea hampshire.

1881 in Lee London D16 > 60
Elizabeth Humphreys unmarried born 1848 Portsmouth a Laundress.
Arthur James Humphreys her son born @ 1878 in lewisham kent.

1911 Newport WALES
Arthur James Humphreys 1848 kent.
Annie Austin Humphreys born Fulham 1882 nee Corney married 1904.

George Alfred Humphreys brother born @ 1884 LEE Kent (Same place as the Frederick W Humpreys on the 1881 census in Linthorpe)!!!

Wonder if there is a connection here??

Maryb.

His grandaughter and grandson were always told he was from Wales
The 1911 census right at the begining of this if definatly correct as I knew all four of his children before they died the only question is the Aldershot bit
