Thats ok Kirsty i knew what you where getting at as a matter of added intrest for you ,boatmen had their own dialect & unless like myself you had been brought up with it you would not have understood what they where saying Brentford to them sounds like Brandford.

HAMBRIDGE Thomas 46 Banbury Warwickshire
HAMBRIDGE Emma 40  Banbury Warwickshire
HAMBRIDGE William 18 Birmingham
HAMBRIDGE Thomas 16 Birmingham
HAMBRIDGE John 10  Birmingham

In 1891 this family appear to be living in Smethwick with Thomas desc as lab'r at glass works

There are 2 children born pre marriage date

1) Evelyn Hambridge THOMPSON Jan 1907 Nuneaton 6d 489

You may need to purchase the marriage certificate of William & Sarah to establish their father's name and Sarah's status etc....
