Hi



If you can post all the information you know about James W Govey, and/or his wives/children, it would help with wny search.



What time frame are you looking at? even an estimated date of birth would help



Good Luck with your research

Yes, how exciting, they are mine. My father Alfred was their half brother. I also have James William married to Mary Nelms July 1852. I think there was a previous marriage.

Mary Ann wife age 41

James son age 17 - ( this one married sarah & then emma)

William son 15

Don't understand your 1901 Census. Caledonian Road and Govey fits perfectly but not Corey. Incorrect spelling of Govey? And a marriage before Emma Bolding. James and George sons of first marriage to perhaps Emma Corey.
