Hi,
could someone lookup a baptism for Joseph Maslen at ancestry birth & baptisms.
There is only one that comes up but I don't have a subscription to look at it, so I'm not sure if it the correct person.
Joseph was born abt 1838 St. Georges Hanover Square and his parents were John and Lydia.

Many Thanks
Sue

I can't find one on Ancestry that matches the details you have.

Hi Shirley. My Joseph did end up living in the Bethnal Green area but I really don't think this is him. Father was definitely John ( name on marriage cert.)
Many thanks for looking anyway.

HI Sooz,
The other Joseph Maslen in Bethnal Green is actually part of my family tree -which I'm happy to share with you if you wish?

I cant help but wonder if the London Maslens are all realted to each other in some way, perhaps with links back to the biggest concentration in Wiltshire?

If you have a family tree you are willing to share with me I'd appreciate it please, as I'd love to find the missing links?
Regards
Stan

This thread is quite old, Stan, and Sooz might not be checking it. I suggest you click on her name and send her a personal message.

Stan,
Did you notice the date of soooz's last post?

If you click on her name you can send her a PM (private message) and if she is still a member and still has the same email address then GR will contact her.
welcome to the boards and if you need help with your misssing links why not start a thread of your own someone may be able to help you

Good Luck
