Can anybody help me with this? Thankyou.

Welcome to Rootchat.
What exactly do you need help with?
There are a lot of Henry Taylor who died in 1924, but this one could fit
September quarter 1924
Taylor Henry 70
H.Hempstead 3a 692
-
On this Certificate 3A 692 it shows him as a female not male, so I am not sure that this is the correct
Certificate.
I would like to know where he is buried in Hemel Hempstead, and I wish to prove the link to my Great Great Great Grandfather Thomas Taylor.
This is the first time I have used Rootschat

Where did you get the 1854 Hitchin birth from, I can't see it on Freebmd?
ADDED: This is probably it, 1855
Births Jun 1855
Taylor Henry
Hitchin 3a 212
-
We have a problem here as that Henry was the son of a William, but was the only one born about that time in Hitchin.

Son in law would be the same as step son

Son of Thomas Taylor he was Married to Mary Ann Taylor
This could possibly be your family in 1861. All the Taylors were born Hemel Hemstead

Could you say when and where his son, your Great Grandfather, was born, and his name, just so we can confirm him in the censuses?
Thanks

Sorry if I have got it wrong
My Father was John Hubert Taylor born in 1920 Sevenoaks and died in 1999 Oxford.
My Grandfather Stanley Hubert Taylor born in 1894 in Harlow and died in 1964 Oxford.
My Great grand father Henry Taylor born in 1854 or 1855 in Hitchin (as far as I know) died in 1924
Hemel Hempstead.
My Great Great grand father was Thomas Taylor born in 1817 in Lincoln died in 1877 ?
My Great Great Great Grand father was William Taylor born in 1794 in Herefordshire.
If this helps you to help me in anyway I would be most gratefull.

Hi, before we start going too far into this, can you tell us which of these you know for certain ie have certificates that you are sure are correct.
As I said earlier the problem is there seems to be only one Henry Taylor born in Hitchin in 1854/55 and he doesn't have a father Thomas.
-
Starting from your Grandfather - Stanley Taylor, this looks like his family in 1901

Emma M Taylor 49
Sidney C Taylor 17
Frances J Taylor 9
Stanley Taylor 6 Harlow

The problem then comes trying to find this Henry Taylor in an earlier census with father Thomas. How did you link them?
This looks like the marriage of Henry and Maria. It might be worth getting that certificate to see if his father is given as Thomas
Marriages Dec 1877
Taylor Henry
Wood Maria
Royston 3a 481

I cannot even find this one:
'My Grandfather Stanley Hubert Taylor born in 1894 in Harlow and died in 1964 Oxford.'
Harlow comes under Epping, so, missing 'Hubert'?
Births September quarter 1894 Stanley Taylor Epping 4a 362

Henry's birth?
Births June quarter 1855 Henry Taylor Hitchin 3a 212
-
That's the one I found earlier, but if you look at the 1861 census I think his parents are William and Sarah.

Sorry, groom, yes, I was just trying to work backwards, and I agree with you, wrong parents.
There is a fairly obvious line in the censuses for him married with stated wife and born in Hitchin and then with mother Sarah and then parents Sarah and William.

Do you think he is the one in the 1901 census with son Stanley? If so I think Slipper007 may have gone wrong with his father being Thomas.

Hi Groom
The marriage Certificate for Henry Taylor to Maria Wood shows William Taylor as father.
Looking at the birth cerificate for Henry Taylor showing Thomas is the wrong one, this appears were I have gone wrong.
Stanley Hubert Taylor is correct.

Ah, now we're getting some where. ;)
So the 1861 census I gave you with parents William and Sarah looks as if it is the right one. You need to go back to Henry and work back again from there.

Good, looks a lot better now.

Marriages Mar 1852
Marshall Sarah Hitchin
Taylor William Hitchin

I guess that Sarah was either a widow or had two children out of wedlock - shown as stepsons in 1861.

Sarah was married before - baptism of her son George. Her maiden name was Sarah Darton.
George Marshall
Baptism Date: 14 May 1845

If he died 1924, this could be his death

Taylor Henry 70
H.Hempstead 3a 692
I'm afraid I can't help with a burial.
