Many thanks for your info.
I just wonder if I have the correct wife for John VANSTONE off the 1881 census?
The only info I'm sure of comes from the marriage cert of
John Francis VANSTONE 30 Sick Berth Steward at 69 Princes St,
father John Richard VANSTONE a Dockyardman
---- married ---
Alice Maude Edith HILL 22 ,same address ,
father John George HILL an Engineer
Married at the Parish Church St. Pauls Devonport on 4th October 1888.
Also on the 1901 Census - John F. 42 born in Devonport and
Alice M. E. 34 born in Tavistock.
Could you just check on the census for a John Francis VANSTONE b1859
with a father John Richard VANSTONE b1831 ??
Somewhere in Devon?
John was also known as Francis !!
Many thanks Arno
