Saved heating up the bath water I spose...

That is so true about his age Ann ,but I thnk it must be the one on that marriage born 1870 as he is a Brass worker.
Beggared if I can find them in 1901 though,or him in 1911

Mind you it will have been a waste of time searching when the poster comes back and tells me I have the wrong Henry Duffin !!

Ellen what other married name?

If you really want some help to try and find Henry Duffin we need as much info as possible.

In your message to me you say you have what you believe to be his marriage to Catherine Hart,the one that I put on here earlier.
That says he was born in 1870 and his father was Henry Duffin ,fishmonger,so have you found him on any census with his parents?
