I'm looking for CHARLES THOMAS GOODWIN in St. Olave aged about 10 with a father of the same name. Thanks people!! xx

Ooops sorry people - wrong board - will put it on Records!! xx

Will 1871 do?/ Charles Goodwin abt 1871 Rotherhithe, Surrey, England Son Rotherhithe Surrey Henry Goodwin abt 1847 Surrey, England Head Rotherhithe Surrey Henry Goodwin abt 1870 Rotherhithe, Surrey, England Son Rotherhithe Surrey Sarah Goodwin abt 1848 Rotherhithe, Surrey, England Wife Rotherhithe Surrey Susan Goodwin abt 1866 Rotherhithe, Surrey, England Daughter Rotherhithe Surrey Aged 7 weeks Merry

Oh you absolute darling!! Thank you so much!! xx

Oops wrong dad?????? Funny...would have expected that one to match with the 1871 Q1 birth reg?? Merry

Are you sure that's the right one? I thought in your original message you said his father's name was also Charles? Do you know what his mother's name was?

Do you have his birth cert?? (I can't see another match at the mo.....) Merry

Ooops!! Me got over excited!! :O)

Found this family on the 1881 - I know they have transcribed middle initial as J - but it could be a T. If you know his mother's name it would help narrow down the search a bit... Charles J. Goodwin abt 1850 Essex, England Head 16 Archbishops Place, Lambeth, London, England Charles J. Goodwin abt 1872 Brixton, Surrey, England Son 16 Archbishops Place, Lambeth, London, England Ernest W. Goodwin abt 1879 Brixton, Surrey, England Son 16 Archbishops Place, Lambeth, London, England Mary A. E. Goodwin abt 1848 Suffolk, England Wife 16 Archbishops Place, Lambeth, London, England Sydney J. Goodwin abt 1874 Brixton, Surrey, England Son 16 Archbishops Place, Lambeth, London, England Wallace P. Goodwin abt 1880 Brixton, Surrey, England Son 16 Archbishops Place, Lambeth, London, England Leah

The birth cert I ordered was the wrong one..... defo born 1871 Jan Q in St Olave.

Thanks everyone..... back to square one me thinks..... sorry to have wasted your time! xx

Diana - tips and records are VERY similar!! You won't get a warning for posting on the wrong board........ :-) Joy

Dont think so but I thought Id post it anyway: 1871: Charles Dyke abt 1860 London, Kent, England Nephew Croydon Surrey View Record Elizabeth Dyke abt 1867 Hellewy, Middlesex, England Niece Croydon Surrey View Record Charles Goodwin abt 1844 London, Kent, England Head Croydon Surrey View Record Charles Goodwin abt 1870 London, Kent, England Son Croydon Surrey View Record Ellen Goodwin abt 1844 London, Kent, England Wife Croydon Surrey View Record Florence Goodwin abt 1868 London, Kent, England Daughter Croydon Surrey View Record Andrews Lines abt 1781 West Indies, Madrira Boarder Croydon Surrey Suzanne

CONFUSED!!!!! Birth reg: Q1 1871 St Olave..... What cert did you buy? This one, or another?? Merry

We could probably still find him, but we need more info to go on. Where have you found him so far? Have you got him on any later censuses? Sometimes it's easier working backwards than forwards. Leah

I ordered that certificate but they decided it wasn't the one I needed and its a chap born in 1879 that they have sent me!!! Not sure where they got that infor from!! Aaaarrrgggghhhh!!

He was married on 25th Dec 1901 to May Ann Harrison in Peckham, son Charles Thomas born 31st Dec 1902 Charles Thomas!

Was he a bachelor? Merry

OK - so you specified the dad's name for the 1871 cert, but the dad is Henry - the family I found in 1871.......so they didn't send the cert. Got it now!! Merry

Yeah me thinks so..... found this on 1891 and think we have found the right people Goodwin Henry 44 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158 Goodwin Sarah 44 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158 Goodwin Charles 20 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158 Goodwin William 16 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158 Goodwin Srah 14 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158 Goodwin Mary 12 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158 Goodwin Harriett 10 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158 Goodwin Bertha 8 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158 Goodwin Samuel 6 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158 Goodwin Arthur 4 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158 Goodwin Emig 2 St Olave Southwark, Rotherhithe RG12/0381/~F078B CD27 R12-0381.pdf p.158
