Hi Helpers.
I have John Reardon b16th Apr.1901.(as on 1939 reg.) married Lily May Cracknell in 1927 (I bought cert GRO) It shows his father as Owen Reardon, further searches I have Owen married to Susannah Newell in 1894 (hope I'm correct) no censuses for them. I then found 1871,81,91 cens which show Owens father as Owen and mother as Hannah (Ryan) both from Limerick Eire.
My questions are=
Can not find a birth for John Reardon b1901 No 1911 census for him.
Can not find a birth for Owen Reardon b1870. West Ham. Have him on 1881,91 cens.
Tearing my hair out for days now. Help please. Regards Les.

If correct that would mean he did not father John b1901.

That's her birth.
If she did remarry John's surname would be Barrow/Barron/Matherson ?

I have these census and the 1871 it shows father as Owen, and as you say no Owen b1870
The 1881,91 Hannah is a widow.
I have been round and round this for days but still can't find answers to my original questions.
Thank Maddie.

Maddie.
I just searched Susannah Newell and on 1881 cens she is age 9 living Roscoe St the same street as your 1911cens if it is her who remarried James Barrow.
I'm now thinking as/if Owen died 1899 and she remarried Barrow you could be correct but where is John b1901.
Did Owen die just after conception as he is as father on John's m cert.
I think you may have cracked it Maddie but still would like John's b cert.
I'll dig some more tomorrow.
Many Thanks
Les
