Member Since: December 2006 Posts: 1 Send Message	Searching for Octamus Young Octamus was born in approx 1826, registered in Knaresborough. He later married Isabella Hyde and was a master butcher in Driffield, but due to his cavalier attitude to spelling his forename (!), I am unable to find any birth record. There are two entries in census' but in both he is married and therefore I can't find his parents. If anyone has any info, I'd be so grateful. Thank you to everyone who has helped so far, you have been very generous. Thank you Susan Kendall
