    Default 1901 look up please.

    Good morning,

    A new week, a new investigation!

    Could someone help me locate a Rose and an Alfred Sheward who were born in the 1890's in Kensington, London.
    I think (not 100%) that their father was an Alfred too.

    I would like to build on this small amount of info i have so any help would go down well with me.

    I can not reply straight away due to having to go to my part time job. Roberto.
