His occupation was shipwright but that of his father is indistinct.   

I can't find a death record of a Harry / Henry of right sort of age post 1837. Could Harry's occupation actually read  as deceased. I have sometimes seen that in occupation column, rather than the father's actual occupation when alive.


There is a marriage for a Henry and a Mary Ann a few years earlier and some earlier baptisms to Henry and Mary/ mary Ann / Mariann in Yarmouth, so could Henry's marriage to Ann be his second one. Found on FS but closed that window as I thought I had different Henry but could be same one.

Boldre not far from Lymington, where Robert seems to be in 1841.

On transcript of Robert's baptism on FS, it says their residence was Shorwell, same residence as some of children of Henry and Mary Ann. Must have had connection to Yarmouth as there is a church in Shorwell and several others closer than Yarmouth.

Found it again - Henry Andrews to Mary Ann Bennett on 19 April 1812 at Thorley IOW - abt 2 miles from Yarmouth
