Mel I had a quick look at the Harry Worths .Couldn't believe how many there were in Devon.What a brilliant name though.Visions of the old TV Harry Worth doing that thing in the shop window where he lifted one arm and one leg and the reflection looking like he was raising both sides :-D :-D.

Pat this is the email I have sent you. I am putting it on here so the others can see it.

Why is this 1911 frustrating Pat?? This one is not yours if Isobel May is your relly this couple only had one child and one child still living which is Phillip Harry Worth. This William (the father) was born in Brixham which is near Torquay. Your William was born near Tavistock at Lydford which is not all that far from where I live. I think you will find that this 1911 census is for William H Worth whose father is Harry Worth.

This is Isobel's birth and the only way to make sure is to buy her birth cert from the GRO index. This will give you her mothers maiden name of Jackman not Jackson.

Thanks Mel.

Im know I have the right 1911 census and also know William henry did marry Jessie Jackman. because my uncle gave me jessies maiden name....I have spoken to my uncle yet again this morning and he mentioned Peatcott farm in devon somewhere.But still not able to find parents of William Henry..
the 1911 census has my uncles mother isabel may worth on there.the 1901 has isabel with her mother Jessie staying with Jessies parents..no sign of a census for William henry..

Thanks for your help Mel its awkward when i havent access to all the records.
I can only go by what info my uncle has given me.I cannot find a correct birth for my William Henry which on some records is quoted as William Hy..But I will plod on so they say..

Finished the ironing and sat out with my book but the sun has gone in and my goose bumps have come out ......

I wish I could get motivated to start up my tree again, maybe in the winter, think I said that last year :-0

I remember that Harry Worth pose, it would make a good photo Ann if you can persuade OH.

Just finished my ironing too Maureen.Not as much as you I'm sure.So I am clear again now.The only things I intend to iron are essentials now .I keep thinking all my clothes are clean and ready to be packed ,but then realise I still have 3 days left,and I have to wear something lol
