	Yes Paul, I thought that but then when you look at the date when born : fifth of december - the 'th' of fifth and how the 't & h' join together looks very silmilar to the end of Mary's maiden name. If you see what I mean..... that's what doubted it for me...

	ok Eric will try again...

	Ok i have had a good look and i have no idea

	Thanks Julie.... Paul, just looking again though at the informant's column - father - the 't & h ' in that looks completely different there! so you could be right!

	looks like the boys name David...born 1859 in Kingsclere: Mothers maiden name looks like Hest John & Mary Hoar ? formerly Hest..or Heit..but Hest looks best bet...

	ok well maybe I can try looking at the marriage index and see if I can find a marriage between a John Hoar & Mary & see if can figure out name from there..... why is it the further back you go the harder it gets.....
