Hi Lin I think you should see the 1851 image as his name is shown as George Davis Shilling. Mary

Thanks Mary for your suggestion, will keep this in mind. I think I will go for the birth of Alfred Rayfield 1855 first and see what that tells me. A big thank you for having a rummage though take care Lin

1861 census Throwley,Kent George Shilling Head 29 Carpenter b Eastling,Kent Adelaide Shilling Wife 30 b Throwley,Kent Davis Shilling Son 7 Scholar b Throwley ,Kent Henry Shilling Son 1 b Throwley,Kent This would seem to give credence to the marriage found earlier to Adelaide Rayner in 1852.Also eldest son's name is significant. Also found George Davis Shilling on 1851 census,have saved image if you would like it.In which case PM your email addy. Mary

I think I have come to the conclusion that there will not be a family George, Judith and Alfred Shilling in 1861 as I think Judith had Alfred out of wedlock and I think she did not marry George after the birth. Who the other children are is a mystery - another one to solve. Thanks chaps for having a rummage take care Lin

Oh Vera that's smashing - food for thought. I have a feeling that Judith never married George Shilling yet more ?? Ta Lin

Yes Mary thats correct. On Alfred's marriage cert it states father George Shilling. Lin

Are we to assume that the Alfred Shilling that Louise found for you on your other thread is incorrect? and that you are now looking for another Alfred Shilling with parents George and Judith? Mary

No marriage found unfortunately. I think Judith's surname was Rayfield b 1834 Stockbury, Kent. If it is I have found her parents and siblings, but not a marriage of Judith Rayfield. Lin

Do you have George and Judith's marriage? I see there is an 11 year difference between Alfred and brother George Shilling who is only 5 in 1871. Is it possible that Alfred was from before they married? Fiona. 1871 for ref Name: Alfred Shilling Age: 16 Estimated birth year: abt 1855 Relation: Son Mother's name: Judith Gender: Male Where born: Hollingbourne, Kent, England Civil parish: St Pancras Ecclesiastical parish: St Martin County/Island: London Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: Disability: View image Registration district: Pancras Sub-registration district: Kentish Town ED, institution, or vessel: 24 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 75 Household Members: Name Age William Mc Limont 7 Alfred Shilling 16 George Shilling 5 Judith Shilling 35 Walter Shilling 3

I am trying to find Alfred Shilling b abt 1855 Kent. His parents were George Davis Shilling & Judith Shilling. I have found Alfred in 1871 St Pancras and in 1881 he was still in St Pancras. His father died between 1867 and 1871 as Judith is widowed in 1871. For the life of me I cannot find George, Judith and Alfred in 1861 and me eyes have started to pop O^O. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Lin
