I have found a Horace. Don't know if it makes sense but posting anyway.

His father is shown as John. John's yob would be c1865. So if Maurice turns out to be Horace, he is the son of John, the brother of Herbert.

I can't find the family in the 1861 and need my bed.

I've looked under Lee and not found so if someone can see if they can locate please.

Hope I've not confused you too muchTracy. And I can't find Maurice either. Grrr.

JustDinosaurJill Report 23 Aug 2012 00:26

It's as though William and Mary in the 1851 and 71 have two lots of kids. I can't find the family in 1861 which will link the two groups of kids together. They have to be the same family based on William and Mary's details being the same.

JustDinosaurJill Report 23 Aug 2012 00:09

The 1851,71 and 81 are correct I think.

Going to try and find in the 1861 :-S

Sorry Tracy. I've removed the confused contributions from me. Hopefully the rest will be correct as I add them. J

There are two families with very similar information. One from Derbyshire and the other from Northampton.

The Maurice Bertram Lea belongs to the Northampton family. They connect to the butcher occupation.

The Derbyshire family connect to the mines.

I managed to mix them up too and I think I know why.

Going to try to divide them up (painful)

Tracy I apologise. I've messed up and am going to go back over everything to do a double check for the correct family.

A very bad mistake but put it down to tired old eyes. Back in a few mins.J :-(

I looked at the original and for definite on the 1891 the son looks like Horace Edwin.

And never worry about being cheeky. Chances are by the time I've pressed send on this message, it will already have been found :-D

Super Thank you so much! From the death record above I think this may have been another child.

Being cheeky now! I don't suppose anyone can find the marriage of his mother and father or earlier censuses???

Thank you so much for all your help though!!
