Jen Thanks for the offer of the biog, but it is now his quiet brother Jim who is occupying my interest ...never born...never married...never died! I want to know why he was living with his cousin and not with his family. I'm not surprised to hear the Holdens are big in Bognor, they are big everywhere, as you would know had you ever tried to search for James Holden.....!! (They could never think of another first name for a boy, they were all called James) Olde Crone |

(What kind of School Fete goes on till nearly midnight?!?!) Done some sleuthing on the Walkers and it looks as if cousin Jim really WAS a cousin! (And therefore, so was the illustrious Gus Walker) I am just sending off for George Henry Walker's birth cert, to confirm that his mother was indeed Harriet Foden - I cannot believe that he would take a Harriet born Congleton, as his wife, and then take Harriet, born Congleton as his cook, its just too much of a coincidence. Wonder if he described her as a cook in 1901 as a kind of black marital joke? OC |
