Oops. ;)

One of those Harris-Burton births was 4 years before the marriage, so one might think there was only one child after all!

Here ya go, as penance:


Births Mar 1917
Harris Arthur W J Burton Lambeth 1d 612


But given the late date, there could have been other children whose births aren't transcribed yet.

If you search at

http://www.freebmd.org.uk

you find their marriage:

Marriages Dec 1915
Burton Emily I A Harris Lambeth 1d 806
Harris Arthur F Burton Lambeth 1d 806


and you can then search for births in Lambeth with surname Harris and mother Burton. There are two, who are likely your Harris-Burton couple's children, I would think.

Having their names and years of birth could be of help in finding descendants.

I am searching for descendants of Arthur Harris, born about 1890s in London or vicinity, who married Emily (Pem) Burton. They had at least one child, and at least one grandchild, whose name was, I believe, Sheila. Any connections?
