Thank you so much for all this insight - the curious birth certificate with 'Joseph Deakin Taylor' looks like it is going to be very interesting, and I have ordered that and the death certificate.  I will post once I see the birth certificate if the mystery is solved. 

Working my way through the census entries posted, many thanks

Hi Peter
Have tried to contact you as my  3G Grandmother Augusta Sophia Tayler has been identified as having a DNA match with Joseph Reuben Deakin. I could not find a connection but Ancestry tells me Augusta is in your tree. I can take Augusta back three generations the GRO reference for Joseph Deakin Taylor is I think the same person as Joseph Reuben Deakin Augusta died in 1858 as Augusta Sophia Deakin But I cannot find a marriage for her.
Regards
Tony

This man  Joseph Reuben Deakin  , my great grandfather was the  son of a Bellows Worker born in Bristol.   It would be nice to find out if he is mentioned in any Theatrical Magazines as he  was  said to be an assistant manager in the Theatre in Leicester Square .He lost his job there because of an argument  when the King's Secretary was present .The account I got mentioned  connections to the Cape Mounted Police , the Coldsteam Guards  . He was said to be an "Irish Adventurer" but I never found any Irish connection . So there there are anecdotal unverified stories about him   . He married Elizabeth Maria Taynton who was killed in a cooking accident apparently . He died Jan 1927 Camberwell .  It would be good to get any further info on him and his Dad the Bellows Worker .Possibly surname spelt DEACON

This man Joseph Reuben Deakin was my great grandfather ( please see  the info. in my reply to other post). I have the same brickwall re. his Dad the Bellows worker  but I do believe Joseph Reuben Deakin himself   was born in Bristol and was a son of the Bristol based Bellows worker another Joseph Deakin  who was born in Birmingham (not Bristol) . There are family stories of Joseph Reuben Deakin having an Uncle who had a Briar pipe factory in Aston ,Birmingham . There were also stories from my dad of him being an Irish adventurer . However the evidence for an Irish connection is only anecdotal - I have no firm evidence for this and my own DNA does not show any Irish DNA link . But he does seem to have moved around a lot . There are other family stories about him.

Hi Bellowsbrick49
Joseph Reuben Deakin was born 16 March 1854 at 4 Church Alley St Philip Bristol the birth was registered as Joseph Deakin Taylor with mother Augusta Taylor. Augusta is my 3xG grandmother who was born 1812 in Gloucester and I have a considerable amount of information about her and her family. I am afraid I cannot help with his father but can help with his mother. Today was the first notification since my previous post

Hi Tony

That makes her my GG Grandmother on my father's side . This was new info. for me  so am pleased to get these details about her . Some time ago  I picked up some of the male Deakin  details on Warks "Waifs and Strays" but not anything on the female side. I would be pleased to know details about her . My private tree is on Ancestry though I am not a paying member - I just use credits "as and when" as this particular  very tough "bellows" brickwall has been around for years . I have about 10 guests on my tree  which is much better on my mother's side ( where the Harrisons were Lincolnshire farmers!) . Thanks
