WATSON from Holbeach COMPLETED
« on: Saturday 15 September 07 09:10 BST (UK) »
John William Watson was born in Holbeach on 15 September, 1850        I have no idea what resources are available but I would like to know his parents names if it is possible.

Many thanks

Hi Clocker
Another Possible on the 1851 is this family


James Watson head mar 24 ag lab Lincs Long Sutton
Sarah       "      wife mar 21                 "           "
John Wm   "     son u/m 2                    "           "

living at Sutton St Mary, Holbeach, Lincs

H0107/ 2097
folio 305
page 1

Best bet is to get his birth certificate, would show his parents

His mothers name was maria so the top one is looking mighty good. As I live in Oz would you be able to tell me where I could apply for a birth certificate. i am new to family history so am feeling my way but thank you so much for looking that up for me, your efforts are greatly appreciated.

Hi did you find your John Waton?  I have a John Watson 19 on the 1871 census.  Researched most of his brothers and sisters but cannot find anything on John after 1871 did he move to Australia???  he was born in Tydd St Mary which is near Holbeach.
