Thank you for your support.
I have downloaded the Eli Lockwood birth in1888 and it seems respectable as the mother May Cunningham was a Lockwood. The mystery remains

Wonder if Eli(senior) had a sister May Lockwood ?
Does the 1891 Census say son or just visitor ?

Trying to see if Eli Lockwood should be Eli Cunningham nephew on the 1891 Census  :-\

Please go to the top of the class.
Yes Eli had a sister who I believed was Mary, but after expanding records I see it is May born Selkirk 1865.
I wasn't thinking laterally enough to consider this possibility. My thoughts were making Eli Senior a philanderer.
May is in the 1901 along with a large family and Young Eli aged 12.
So I give you Game Set and Match and many many thanks.

Your welcome NormanE ,

I to could not find any other records for an Eli Lockwood(Census , birth , death) so there did seem to be a chance that Eli was a nephew and not a son.
