Henry Onken b. 1836 Middlesex or so he says in 1871 but in 1861 he would have had to be in Austrailia for his children to be born Katherine (kate) and Henry (Henry Sameul)
henry S married 1881 and dies 1918
other children Jane, Elizabeth, Grace and william
his wife Elizabeth was born Scotland so they could have married there
in 1851 there is Georeg Onken b. 1836 Middlesex in whitechapel s/o Charles & elizth (sister Julia brother Charles)
now overseas in USA we find in 1900 by coincidence Henry Onken with dau. Grace (same age as ours) although Henry is a little younger, with daughter Maggie Wahlent but they all say born Germany, it is possible this is Henrich Onken who eimgrated earlier but on the census page this says Henry Onken emigrated in 1891 also son of Henry Swithert
posts crossed so Henry Samuel who m. in 1881 could be Henry senior and not Henry jnr.
