Hello Mervyn, when you say you're trying to find his family, do you mean his ancestors, descendants or his siblings?

Where in Gloucestershire was he born?

What are you actually hoping for?

I only have a limited amount of imformation regarding Edward,this came from his NZ death certificate.I have no idea where he or his family lived in Gloucestershire prior to his departure to New Zealand.I have in my search there are many thousands of Jackson families in the UK making it very hard to connect onto his family.
Thank you for help,
Regards,
Mervyn
