Thanks to one and all for the speedy responses to my inquiry - and for all the good information!
I did not know that Agnes was a widow when she married Leonard Gibson Rawson in 1885.
If Henry Chorley died in 1878, that raises the question as to who was the father of James Walter born in 1882. 

When I find him in the 1891 census with Agnes' two daughters by Leonard Rawson they are living in Chesil, Portland (where Agnes was in the 1881 census)......   And that begs the ??: where was 12 yr. old Agnes Annie?
So it seems there is still some little mystery about Agnes and who J.W.'s father was?

BTW, I'm still a novice at Family Search, can someone tell me how to get into the "Ancestral File Database?" 
Thanks,
Cliff

Re AGNES ANNIE and my earlier reply;;

1891 she is an Apprentice to a Toy/Fancy Goods maker/shopkeeper in Tiverton.

As Henry Chorleys Death is Reg after Agnes Birth she is most likely his Child.

As for James Walters Father who knows

can someone tell me how to get into the "Ancestral File Database?" 
Thanks,

Hi Cliff

Just click on the link I gave you earlier (the shrinkalink one)  - here it is again:

http://shrinkalink.com/47154

it will take you into Family Search and directly to their Ancestral File database.

When you get there, just enter in to the fields:Howard CHORLEY , b 1910 Canada, Sask and click seach. Then click on him to open up & navigate around the family file.

Cheers

I am the granddaughter of James Walter Chorley and Mary Begon.  Cliff Chorley was my father.  I would like to learn as much as possible about my grandfather, James Walter.  I just stumbled on this site tonight so will check back.
