Have you got the birth and marriage certificates of your Father and Grandfather? |

I have my fathers birth certificate. I have my grandfathers 2 x wedding certificates & my grandfathers discharge paper from the army. Then this receipt, thats all i have. I thought i had found my grandfather and his siblings in the census records but there is no mention of a william there and i cant see why i have the receipt if he is not my relative. |

Yeah thats the census i thought was my grandfathers siblings. My grandfathers Father was called James Horry (its on the marraige certificate) just cant understand where this William Horry ties in, i cant find any old census records for James Horry to see who his siblings were. I dont know where John Horry was born but im guessing somewhere in Lincolnshire cos thats where he first married at 26years old. |

He did marry Lucy Harris in 1902 but why has the name changed to Harry? This would have made me think its not them but could it just be a mispell? |

Looking at the original of the 1911 census and comparing the A in Watson to the A in Harry, I believe it should read Horry. |

Seems to be 1847 birth for James in later censuses |

Yeah thanks, thats him too, he was married to Mary & a labourer. Do you know why he does not appear in any earlier census records, before he married? |

If that was correct birth for James in 1847, Boston, then these could be siblings, but also having difficulty finding them in censuses: |
