George Lewis born at Clent
« on: Tuesday 04 November 14 19:28 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for any information on George Herbert (or poss Hubert) Lewis born Clent cir. 1878.
The only reference I can find for him is in the 1881 census for Eaton under Haywood (Diddlebury Shropshire) where he is staying (aged 3yrs) with his grandparents Thomas and Margaret Roberts nee Lewis. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,

If you have access to the 1911 then this would appear to be George -

That's very useful, I'll get the marriage certificate.
I want to discover who his parents were - so this is a great help.
Thank you JJ and Keyboard86.

Thanks Jack
This is now adding up! George's mother would have been Emily Mountford who I think was born in Bromsgrove. George Lewis senior was from Shropshire (Birtley, a hamlet near Ticklerton).
Thank you
