Regarding what Samantha said about Joey's parents being Barnard and Hester and knowing the abysmal transcriptions on the 1901 census, I am willing to bet that this is in fact Barnett and Yetta, either misheard or mispelt. Does it give Barnard's place of birth as Poland? LN PS If you think Hester is a long way from Yetta, I have a Smoothy who became Lenorthey and a Jeuel who became Denel on this same census. |

Just had a look at the original document, it definately says Barnard, 33, Cabinet Maker, Germany NK. Also had children Katie 9, Alick 5 and one that I think says Morray, 13 If you want a look at it, let me know and I will email it. Sam |

Margaret If you have your father's birth cert, does it give his father's occupation? LN |

hi everyone ! I'm glad that you all love a mystery! haha My fathers birth cert states that Barnet was a cabinet maker. Born as far as we know c1869 slask in poland. Yetta born around 1872/4 in germany. it gets worse though.....there is also another son , jack born c1905 (ish) w think mile end area. Any ideas will be great. |

I think that is them in Tottenham - the occupation fits, Germany fits, the names kind of fit if you follow 1901 transcription logic. Night night. |
