Interesting to see that Lorenza used his middle names, reversed. I wonder if his mother had remarried at some time to a Baker.

Lorenza Stephen Henry Cleverly was born in 1872 in Cirencester district
He was baptised 17th August 1873 in Quenington
Father Stephen, mother Annie Elizabeth

Died as Cleverly in Cardiff district in 1952

Welcome to the boards Michael.

You've noticed Sam posted ages ago, but it looks as though he's still a member. Click on his name in green and you can send him a personal message. He'll be notified there is a message for him in the GR system if he still has the same email he registered with them. GR don't let you know if there is an addition to your thread (so always keep checking back). Some people don't reply, there are several reasons for this or sometimes it's months before they reply.

In the meantimes look at the top of the page under the search heading and check out "all members trees' to see if anyone else is researching the family and try to get in touch with them.

Hi,
I'm the grandson of Gladys in your list. I've recently started my family tree and have had diffiulty looking into Lorenza. i was unsure if this was his birth name or Henry Baker was as on his marriage bans to Evelyn in 1922, he put his father's anme down as Baker too. i hope you find this message though as I can see your original reuest was from nearly 20 years ago
