East Ham West Ham Waltham Forest they are all the in the same area
Most of my family were born in Waltham Forest but show as West ham on some records, which is confusing as I dont think they are near to each other

In this case it didn't matter that you had his name spelt wrong.....He still wouldn't have come up with Grace

The page number has been transcribed wrong for George, he was coming up under 775 & it should have been 773
