I hope someone can help me with the following:
Firstly, I have Albon (Alban) George Holton born c1855 in Evenley, Northamptonshire?. I believe he was married to Esther Day.
I am looking for the parents and siblings of Albon, I did find a George and Mary who could have been his parents, but no Albon with them in 1861 and couldn't find any siblings either.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thankyou
Jackie

Can't find Estelle after 1891.

Can't find Alban Lionel after 1901.

Can't find Frank's marriage - too many with the same name.

Happy hunting,
