Edward last on page - Emma first next page- its tempting Kate ............. Oh dear I can feel another 7 quid wafting from my bank account - help - hold me down peeps. ill have a quick look in a mo at deaths between 1838-1841 on our new facility on ancestry. Also, check out 1851 census for any 13 year oldish Edwards born Wandsworth. (Sorry, thinking allowed)

Heather, - Sorry If I am costing you money but Edward does look like a possible. If you find they are twins but not your's - I promise to adopt them. Dea Xxx

Yeah right Dea, but you wont get the sleepless nights and the smelly nappies seeing as they are long gone! Only problem is, I have found this boy in the 1851: Maria Cockram abt 1795 Bethnal Green, Middlesex, England Wife Wandsworth Surrey Thomas S Cockram abt 1795 Wandsworth, Surrey, England Head Wandsworth Surrey *****Edward Taylor abt 1837 Wandsworth, Surrey, England G Wandsworth Surrey Frederic Taylor abt 1846 Wandsworth, Surrey, England G Wandsworth Surrey Thomas Taylor abt 1835 Wandsworth, Surrey, England G Wandsworth Surrey So I think that has blown it. Cant find an Edward Taylor born year previously so looks like this is the kiddo I had hoped was my twin. Damn. Still saved me £7

Congrats Dea, I have spent the last few hours knitting two pairs of boottees and two hats...........They are very cute............very pale yellow and white candy stripe!!........................now, where would you like them sent?? Hope you are not feeling too exhausted?? Merry
