hi, i had found this family before tati and toni, but dismissed them solely on the fact that he was,nt down as being born in paddington!! i assumed the census is always correct on such things but may be not?? :-\

thanks for all the replies everyone, according to the census john was born in paddington, and he lived in east end after his marriage and died there as he is buried in tower hamlets cemetary.  so not sure if the john/elizabeth family is correct. or maybe paddington is,nt where he was born ? aaggghh so confusing lol

my problem is, apart from charles lake, who is my grandad, i can find no records of this family. no marriage, death or birth records. my aunt has helped me a lot with my tree and as john lake is her grandfather i would love to be able to tell her something about him. word is that john commited suicide. he does,nt appear in 1911 so we assume sometime in between census records. she would love to know if indeed this is true. fingers crossed for any info you can give on the family. janes maiden name was either nichols or nicholson.
thankyou all
best wishes

allan, if this is of any use, my mum told me she used to go into liverpool city wih her mum to pay some sort of maintenance payment to his first wife? i dont really understand this as his first lot of children were all in their twenties when mum and her sister were born??? so maybe he was paying for his first wife to be in a home??
regards to all who are helping with this search!! i have posted this on ftf as well
regards
