Hi

Is there anybody out there that can help me.

George Williams according to 1871 census born 1857 born Norwood, Middx, London. RG10/4070 Folio 55 page 24

1881 census RG11/3694 Folio 4 page 1 - Born Middx, London

1891 census RG12/3255 Folio 38 page 30 - born Brierly Hill, Warwickshire
(this is the one that is throwing me)

1901 census RG13/3741 Folio 11 page 12 - born Bradford, Nr London

I have copies of George's marriage certificates. He married Alice Grimshaw on 30.9.1874 his father is William Williams - Boatman. George was widowed and re-married on 26.3.1891 to Elizabeth Lockley, father William Williams - Boatman.

Why would he be born in London when all his other siblings were born in Shropshire and Staffordshire. I don't know the London area at all. What would the registration district be listed under? If I can get a copy of his birth certificate it would help me so much.

I know this is a tall order, but any help would be appreciated.

regards

Ann
