Thanks for all your input and the census info, will keep trying with this.

Sorry Catherine..typed in error! Eyes starting to get a bit tired ;)

Been looking at my other Wren family....I have John Wren born Bristol 1849 who was living in the Mina Road area in 1891. Still no connection with the above though.

Joseph E H Wren can't have married in 1832, he wasn't born until 1895?
or
Is this another Joseph E H Wren?

Hmm....more names to search for thanks. Even more confused now. Had hoped to connect Joseph Snr born 1856 Westerleigh with other Wren links in my family, but they were all born Bristol! Joseph Eh Wren married in1932 and died 1938. His wife Rosina was left money by my GGmother who was not related to this line of Wrens but distantly by marriage to the Bristol born Wrens!

I am looking for parents for Joseph EH Wren born c. 1894 probably in Wales. I believe his father may not have been from Wales with family living in Bristol.
Many thanks for any help.
