Gerald

You have already been advised that there may not be a birth record..................until 1875, there were no penalties for not registering.

You could contact the Records Office yourself and ask if they could look for a baptism.

The following PM received from Gerald, I've asked him to reply on the Thread

Yes, thanks. I have this record, and the a couple of earlier census records. It’s his birth that I cannot locate, so am hoping someone who visits Southampton Records Office might be able to help
