Please could i ask for assistance with this query.

Thomas Aspin aged 8 b, c1903 Blundell Sands, Lancashire, England

Listed as Nephew to house of the house Robert Huck b. 1868.

Thomas Aspin in my research is son of Thomas Aspin 1875 and Catherine Smith 1875. Thomas, father deceased by 1901 mother deceased by 1910. Unsure how my Thomas Aspin actually fits in with this family. If it is through his mothers line i am not related as i am only connected through his father. Thanks

Will be around to answer any questions.

Thanks

If 'Father' Thomas Aspin was deceased by 1901, how can he be father of Thomas born 1903?

This would be the birth of the twin brothers:

Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Births Sep 1903
Aspin Robert Blackburn 8e 449
Aspin Thomas Blackburn 8e 449

So, wrong area for Blundellsands.

Perhaps the child born Blundellsands is connected via the father's line?

Although the 1911 shows her as Mary Jane, she was Jane on her marriage to Robert Huck. In 1881 she appears to have the same mother as Thomas. Is she his older sister so she took the little boy in?
