Thanks wozzle
Would love the entry for Fanny, would like to find out how many of the family were born at Rockfield and if any were born at St Pancras

Don't these transcriptions rock you sometimes, most of the time the transcribers do a great job but it is hard when there is that big a difference.

Thanks for that, i love how these second names keep popping up.
That certainly looks like George.
At first glance i thought that was his brother William but born Cheltenham is wrong, the age is right and being a joiner would follow from his father being a carpenter.
William is not with his parents in 1851 and by the age of the first child he could have been with Elizabeth then, would be interesting to see what he put down for his birthplace then.

Going off that they are not brothers, must have been just one of the six William employed.
Must have been a lot more work in London for Tradesmen and Tailors etc at that time.

Thanks
