Surname Horlor

[helachau]

FreeBMD has the birth registration of
John Horlor, Abergavenny, Jun 1857, 11a 86

Not far is Stowe, St Briavels. Have you considered this as a possibility?

Re "deceased 1866". Do you mean "deceased" on the 1886 certificate - father's name not recorded?

George W (why does that sound familiar!) Horlor's occp'n on the 1861 Census is "Carver's gilder".

Do you have his father? Possibility -

Bath Chronicle + Weekly Gazette, Thursday, 13 October 1825
DIED - Sunday, Mr George Horlor, carver and gilder, of Westgate Street

Thanks but I don't think this is him and yes I did mean 1886 slip of the finger!
thanks again

[LyndaM]

Thanks for this. I do believe his father was George and he was a carver and gilder so it all ties in. Great!
