jui this may seem a daft question but how would the name have been pronounced....would the f have been silent?

There is a Henry Alford, living in East Street, Bedminster in 1841, aged 11 (just out but not too far), son presumably of Thomas (a sawyer) and Sarah (a schoolmistress)

Thankyou  old Bristolian.. but Henrys parents were Robert and Hannah.. i know he wasent with them because they are on the census without him..

[jui]

Old Bristolian.. just a thought .. does it say what relation.. if any .. that Henry is to Thomas.. and sarah.. please.. thankyou..

Thanks jui, I asked because I`d been looking at a Henry Hallard and wondered if the pronunciation of the surname was the reason for not being able to pinpoint him accurately.  It`s hurting my head too!!
