EDIT looking at the research further down I think Clara is his wife not his mother.

Completely wrong area - but how intriguing!

brummiejan - Valerie said that it was John Stanley's parents who were called John and Grace? Or are you suggesting that they got married 24 years after John Stanley's birth?

That 1891 is incorrect. This would seem to be correct for 1901:

David - I know you are right - just posted it in case there is any connection. And Valerie isn't 100% sure of her information yet! Mind you, 1911 looks to confirm it so probably just a co-incidence.

Hang on - I think that is the marriage as it looks as though Grace was John's wife not his mother. And the children were born in Cornwall.

It seems that he was the illegitimate son of Constance Maddern, who married John Eddy in 1891:

Name: Constance Maddern
Year of Registration: 1891
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Penzance
County: Cornwall
Volume: 5c

If you look on 1901 there are two grandchildren with the surname Eddy, who I am presuming are Constance's younger children.

I didn't mean was she was confused exactly, just that she hadn't yet confirmed the info she was given. Like a lot of family information, it has useful but not always accurate stuff in there! Thank goodness he married someone with such an unusual name.

Yes, I know what you meant. I think we've found the right family now.
