Parents of Frederick Rowland Haslam

[Dalesman]

I'm trying to find the parents of Frederick Rowland Haslam of Clay Cross area. b.1885-6, killed 1/7/1916, France. He is remembered on the war memorial at St Martins Church, Low Marple.

Probably best to get the birth certificate to be sure but there is a Fred age 3 on the 1891 census born Clay Cross with parents Samuel and Rebecca.

Ah this looks to be the birth registration for the one you want

Mar 1896 Chesterfield
Haslam Fred Rowland
7b 684

Sorry that's too old for the one you want

Hi Milliepede
Thank you for your prompt reply.
The 1896 date is a strong possibility, the original date passed to me was 1896, which is most likely wrong.
Is it possible to trace who Fred Rowland Haslam's parents were.
regards
Bill

Sorry Milliepede.
1885-6 is wrong.

Looks like James & Ann.

1901 census has a Fred R born Chesterfield age 5 with those parents plus a sister Jessie age 4

17017 Pte Fred Haslam killed 1st July 1916 has military records available. One of the pages gives parents as James and Harriet Haslem of 7 Queens Terrace Edlington Doncaster.

Siblings: Jessie Lindsay Haslam, Mary Haslam and Douglas Haslam.

Marriage in 1894 James Haslam and Harriet Rowland so that explains the middle name.
