Where do you have him on census after 1841, Sorry I am talking about Henry

James Beard Graham gives his place of birth as Trinidad 

Just posting signatures for comparison     I think they are alike

Fits with father as a planter.

Hi Rosie,

You're right. Those signatures look very similar.

I've not been able to find Joseph or James on any census records :-(

[Guy Graham]

where is the reference to him being born in Trinidad?

From 1873 to 1878 there is a James here:

James Beard Graham 5 New Quebec-street  St Marylebone Westminster

I found James on some census by searching for his wife Sarah bn Frimley.

1851  HO107 /1510 F   102 p12

1861  RG09/72 f5 p5

1881 RG11 /89 f51 p13

1901 RG13 /62 f43 p78  Sarah was a widow

where is the reference to him being born in Trinidad?

He was a Saddler when he married which tied in with the census entries posted above for him and Sarah.  They give his place of birth as Trinidad, West Indies

Thanks Rosie and Chempat. I've added those census and electoral register records to my tree.

I guess DNA will be my only means of finding out about Joseph and hopefully those that came before him :-)
