Hi,

On the 1911 census for Annie have you looked at the original image? It should state how many children born, died or living.

Hi,

Are you sure about Annie Bowker? This looks like a possible marriage and in 1881 they have a Bramhall living with them;

This one maybe?

Births Sep 1875 (>99%)
Myres John Frederick Sheffield 9c 499


It has a scan available so do check that first in case it's a typo.

I can't seem to find him on the birth records at all. Wondering now if different surname, very confusing!!!

Yes. It would (should) confirm his parents' names and if he is a direct ancestor you want to be sure you are following the right family ...

maybe that would be a good one to buy?

no birth certificate

she was about 23 when Fred was born

Do you have John's birth cert?

Jill

oh maybe. the date of birth I have for Robert is 1874, there might also be a Eliza as well???!! But can't find anything on her either

Is it possible that Annie was married before and therefore Robert could be hers by her first marriage?

Jill

John Fred was my Grandad's half brother but as Thomas was pretty old by then grandad always suspected that actually John might be his dad in truth

Yes, he also married again a lady called Lucy Carratt

Found them in 1881, 1891 and 1901.

If it wasn't for Thomas' birthplace I'd wonder if they were the same lot - he changed his occupation a lot didn't he?

No sign of other children though ... was hoping a marriage might pin down the likelihood of any children born before John.

Jill

Not sure, In 1881 they were married and John lived with them. In 1871 Thomas Myers was about 15 years old and lived at home with parents in Spalding
