George Bradshaw

[lindy46]

I wonder if anyone can help me trace a George Bradshaw. I think he was born in Fermoy in 1862. His father was James Bradshaw who was serving in the  English  army and his mother was Honora Gubbins from Fermoy, they were married in 1862 in Fermoy eventually leaving Ireland  for Wales in the early 1870's. I assume that the 1871 census was destroyed as I can find no trace of it and as yet have been unable to find George 's place of birth. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Thanks for your help - I am sure Ellen's Birth details will shed some light on the birth whereabouts of George. As far as James being married before, I have found no trace of a previous marriage but do you have a name of his other child born in Cambridge Barracks?? The census are very confusing because as you say one says George was born in Ireland, two say he was born in Hereford and the third says he was born in Manchester. As his father James was in the army I suspect he did travel around a great deal but to have three places of birth!!!!!
