Eldest child ?


Births Sep 1886 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Davies Frances Clara - Newport M 11a 190

just a thought, I think Agnes on 1911 may be the same person as Sarah A on the 1901

Could very well be, Elizabeth could have died after Freddy was born as Edgar had to go and live with sister Rose Ellen, born in 1888.

is this Charles and some of the children in 1911?

info on the marriage has been completed and deleted, it says 10 children born to marriage, 9 still living at time of census

marriage looks like 25 years

Yes thats the one, the birth years are a bit out . The Edgar R was my Father in Law born in 1899.
Charles was born in Bromsberrow Heath Glos and Elizabeth in Llanrothal, Herefordshire, 1865. I cant find any records on these two prior to 1881 so dont know their parents info.

is this Charles and Elizabeth?
