Oh my! fast work, thanks Chris, ... I had seen that one, (sorry I should have given more info on what I had). I wonder if parents have died then, this part of my tree is very hard to trace, I did note somewhere a pembrokeshire link, but it was on one of those days I had been looking for hours and all those place names were just melting into each other

I was wondering if father had died and mum remarried





John was born their maybe thats were you noted it .

one death

Chris, its a bit old for him.... John c.1863, or am I being my simple somerset self and missing something obvious, this is where my head goes...around and around lol

Hi tootie

I think it's a strong possiblity - ages can vary quite a bit on censuses - but the place and all the names are right (and there is nothing else)

Bear it in mind at least.
