Find Ancestors

Can anyone help please, my head is sore after the biggesr brick wall I have ever seen.
I have found the man I am looking for at St Micheals School Brixton .
b 21 nov 1896, his father James Taylor and his address at that time ( 1904 )
but the address given, I can not find any Taylor's ever living there.
Either befor or after that date.
Any help/sugestions please
Cathy

When you say that you can find no Taylors living there before or after that date, do you mean in the 1901 and 1911 censuses, or on ER's?

Could you give us the address and the parents' names etc?

Thank-you

Added:
If you look at the image you will see that he only started at the school in 1904, and was previously at a school in Hackford Rd (?), so he has moved around...

London, England, School Admissions and Discharges, 1840-1911

This might have been his previous school and surrounding area:

The address from the image was 57 Stockwell Green. George left St Michael's school to go to Stockwell Road.

Cathy, what is this brick wall stopping you from finding? How did you connect to George?

I only know his fathers name " James Taylor ", and they lived at 57 Stockwell Green.
I can not find any Taylor's living at that address either befor or after 1904.
I do not know his father's occupation.
I do not know were he was born, so the census dose not help, the one's I have found on the 1901 and 1911, thier birth dates were wrong.
Thank you
Cathy

Birth dates on the school records can be wrong as I have found several that are incorrect

How have you got back to James? Is he a direct ancestor? I so, which of his children are you descended from? If he married, his marriage cert will give his father's occupation which would help identify him on the census.

Giving the location of Hackford Road, could this be George in 1901:

In 1901 George was 4 as his birthday was November, so the school register is
correct.
We know his father was James.
There was more than one marraige certificate,and his father was always James
but James's ocupation was different on each one.
Cathy

I think I should say, George is my husbands father.

Not even certain what to ask at this point.

Oh-Cathy-could you check the address on the first marriage cert again. What's the name of the Terrace in Wandsworth???

And you know of the divorce from Mary SPURR because....?


Sorry!!!


Maureen

Now you know why I need help.
Mary Spurr was my husbands Mother.
Yes you have all Annie Lambourns details right.
I am at my caravan at the moment on holiday, will check regards Terr Wandsworth.
when I get home.
George Taylor was not quite truthful, but if it had been a woman, we would have got
younger, not him, as you have seen.
He also changed his name as you have seen G.J. and G.J.H Taylor, but his name was Just George.
Mother ( Mary ) found out after they were married that he was realy 41yrs old but
she is no longer with us we cant ask questions.
My poor husband just wants to know his roots.

He even fooled Annie.
Cathy

Cathy,

Enjoy your holiday. :-D :-D

Forget about Family History for a few weeks.

Is there sun where you are?

Best,
Maureen
