Title: Harry Hubert Dawson
Post by: bobtonks on Monday 27 August 18 18:17 BST (UK)
In 1892 Harry Dawson was born in Essex (Forest Gate) to Thomas and Emma Jane Dawson. In 1891 the family were living in West Ham and moved to Cambridge before the turn of the century.
In 1901 the family were living in Mill Field (Cambridge Road) Impington. In 1911 Harry's father was still at Cambridge Road with 3 of the children ... no Emma Jane and no Harry.

Harry Dawson married Henrietta Peters, Cambridge 1915. Harry died in France 1917.

Can any one see Harry in 1911?

Do you know what occupation he had when he married?

No, I'm afraid I don't. His father was a Tin Plate Worker, his sister a Tin Can maker and they both worked at Chivers Jam Factory ..... it that helps.

He is allusive. I'm beginning to wonder if he maybe joined the Army or was 'just not around' when the census was taken.

Thank you looking .... I'll trawl the local papers and see if he is mentioned.
