Marriage - county unknown

Would they still have needed to have the children baptised though, although if not why do one and not the other two!

The bit that I found odd with this family is it was my belief that all births had to be registered at least?

I agree. The only one is Madeline Agnes, although not checked throughly. Maybe this girl was the most wanted, she did not go as the 2 boys did as very young to parts unknown.

Just a thought. But saying that they must have been registered at some point to travel overseas

Wasn't there some controversy about Dr Bernados shipping boys overseas in the early 1900s?

  Even if their was controversy with the work carried out by Dr Barnardos Homes, the boy's births should have been registered?

Agree again.  At birth there should be a registry, regardless what happens after.

Hi OK let us possibly try to track Henry b 1860 from 1861, b Cardiff to Henry 1838 Ireland, Sarah 1835 Somerset Thomas 1858 Cardiff, plus Henry White 1846 London Census ref RG09/4035/80/14

In 1871 census

Sarah 1834 b Somerset
Thomas J 1857 Glamorganshire
Henry 1860 Somerset
Census ref RG10/2426/110/7

So in 1871 mother is
Sarah Shears born Shepton Montague, Somerset which is where I believe Henry acquired his middle name of Montague. Sarah has been found all the way through to 1911 and I have found her parents also in Shepton Montague, James and Keturah (Hansford). Sarah married Henry Clinton in Cardiff 1857

  So normal question with your lot, why registered in Cardiff and apparently born Shepton Montague, and back to Cardiff, and then b Middlesex? who is Henry White in 1861?
