according to the 1881 census he was 11mths old, but i have tried and searched ancestry and free BDM, and IGI but can not find any birth? i have found his army service papers and they have it as Leeds 1881
sorry that is all i can tell you about his birth.

No - that is the ref for the 1881 census entry.

I do wonder about this birth -
Ap/May/Jun 1880
Holbeck 9b 384

Charles Henry Mawson

because the birth above on the same page is a child with surname Lawson, ans I wonder if the indexer was writing Morton and got confused!
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
