Kia Ora
I am researching "forwards" to try and sort out what happened to great granpa's family after he emigrated.
So I cannot confirm anything with certs! I have a descendant's information that William Henry Raven was instrumental in cycle making, was Works Director for Raleigh Cycles and was awarded the OBE. By 1907 he & the family lived in Nottingham.
Charlotte Fanny Ward lived in Leamington so quite natural they should marry there I think.
Cheers
