Thanks for trying, but I reckon this isn't our Henry Arthur, he was born 14 Feb 1898 at 2 Beeston Road, Dunkirk U.D (whatever the UK stands for?). His birth was registered on the 5th April 1898. His parents were (we think) Alfred and Elizabeth Thorpe Watson (formerly Sargent). Alfred was from Leicester, but later moved to Basford, Nottingham Also, we can't work out how Elizabeth fits in with the family tree, she's got so many surnames!

Alistair, lol, you still missed out where they should be living in your message, lol but anyway had a look for Elizabeth as both an Elsbury & Bunn, born in Northumberland, but still nothing i'm afraid Jane

Rita could this be Henry in 1901? Edith Watson abt 1900 Doncaster, Yorkshire, England Daughter Doncaster Yorkshire Henry Watson abt 1865 Loversall Doncaster, Yorkshire, England Head Doncaster Yorkshire Henry A Watson abt 1898 Relford, Nottinghamshire, England Son Doncaster Yorkshire Mabel Watson abt 1895 Relford, Nottinghamshire, England Daughter Doncaster Yorkshire Mary C Watson abt 1868 Newark; Laxton, Nottinghamshire, England Wife Doncaster Yorkshire Richard Foster abt 1848 Brighton, Lincolnshire, England Uncle Doncaster Yorkshire there is no Henry in Nottingham of about the right age, if it is the wrong Henry, could you please give me details of his parents thanks Jane

HIYA Are you free to look up Hentry Arthur Watson, living at 2 west hill, church street, old basford, nottingham - born 14 february 1898 2 beeston road, dunkirk, nottingham? I'd like to find out as many of his relatives as I can and if he ended up in the workhouse! Thanks Rita

I don't think they had any daughters.. Will check with my Mom when I speak to her next. Thanks for looking . Alison

Jane Should have mentioned they were living in Co Durham before emigrating...sorry... unfortunately not much else is known...they appear to have been definetly married and Elizabeth was probably born in Callerton Northumberland late 18-early 19 century... dont want to waste your time...was just hoping a match arose on any of the 1841-1861 census... Alistair

Alison, can't find a Thomas with those parents, but have come across this pair: Bishop st Elizabeth Ward abt 1877 Birmingham Wife Birmingham Warwickshire Nelly Ward abt 1900 Birmingham Daughter Birmingham Warwickshire Rosena Ward abt 1900 Birmingham Daughter Birmingham Warwickshire William J Ward abt 1876 Birmingham Head Birmingham Warwickshire coppersmith but no Thomas with them, any good to you???

A bit of a common name here I'm afraid. I am trying to find William, or could have been called James, Ward and his wife Elizabeth on the 1901 census. The lived in Birmingham and had a son Thomas but may have also had a second child. My Grandfather was born in 1905 so I'm guessing Thomas would have been under 5 in 1901. Hope you can find them. Thanks Alison

Hi Alistair do you have a rough idea on ages for Thomas & Elizabeth please? also where are you expecting them to be living? and last one , honest, are they man & wife???? Jane

Hi Jane Im back again...looking for info on Thomas Bunn & Elizabeth Elsbury Co Durham per census 1841-1861...they emigrated to Australia in 1862 but have been unable to trace any record in BDMs... thanks Alistair

Gloria, i can't find them.......................... were they defo in Middlesex area? Jane

Pamela, it definitely says Loranah, but could be anything. it could be a name no one knew how to spell, lol or try saying it with an accent for that region, that helps sometimes. now with Marys age i would have said 31, but looks similar to 51 so know why they put that, Jane

Hi Jane, I am looking for NEWMAN family on 1841 census. I have found them on 1851 living in St. Botolph Aldgate, info on 1851 is Daniel Newman, head age 40 born Cork 1811, Ellen wife born Limerick 1813, Mary daughter age 20 born Shadwell 1831, Ellen daughter age 15 born Shadwell 1836. I do believe they had a son but no mention of him on 1851 although his wife was living with the family. Thanks, Gloria
