Herman MOAKES /MOKES was born in South Normanton in 1825 to Sarah Moakes. I have found him in 1841 & 1851 but after that - nothing. He married someone called Ann (but no marriage found) and had 3 children. George 1855, John 1857 and Louisa 1860 all born at SN. In 1871 I have found John & George living with a Isaac Spencer and wife Ann and here is the mystery as there is a marriage on FreeBMD of a Ann Moakes to Isaac Spencer, but no death of Herman. I have now found a court record dated 1895 of a Herman Moakes who was accused of an assult. Same Herman??? I can't find any Herman's in any census after 1851. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

Hi Ann in Cardiff

Can you give more details of the Hermon Moakes you find in 1891 1901 who was born in 1868. It say he was son, so who were his parents. This maybe the Hermon I found in the court case dated 1895

Thanks very much
