I hope I haven;t overdone it: lots left for you to look for and you will need certificates to prove some of the relationships, but it looks good at the moment.

Thank you so much for the information. 

My grandad was Thomas Denyer one of the sons, he died unfortunately very early on.

Richard looks like he was my great uncle, do you know where we could obtain his birth certificate?  My cousin seems to have drawn a blank on this one.

It looks like John and Hannah married in Kensington and went back to Mon. and returned to London later.

Once again, thank you very much.

No Richard DENYER in the complete birth indexes 1887-89 inclusive.

His parents should be married, so he should be there...

Thanks for looking, it's possible the name may be spelt wrong, never mind.

Well, I'm off to footie now, as my address name says Lowerloft is where I sit as I am a long suffering QPR supporter.  Still, it's been a good week, I found a cousin I didn't know I had, you've given me info I didn't have, QPR winning for a change today will be the icing on the cake!

Many thanks.
