Looking for John/James William Albert Butcher. Born 1875 in West Ham or Stratford. Father James Prior Butcher c1853. Mother Agnes Mary Butcher c1853. He might have been still living in that area as he went on to get married and have children in the same area. Any info greatly received. Sarah.

Sarah had a look on the 1891 and there are a few James Butcher's, but none born in West Ham. Any other clues. Lynda

No more clues Lynda. Know he got married in 1898. Found him on 1901 census. Can't find him on 1881 or 1891 census. Going to order his birth certificate tomorrow morning. Hitting brickwalls everywhere. Have to learn to be patient. As they say Rome was not built in a day. My family tree took years to build. I just wish my deaduns would have written all the details down. Would have saved me a fortune. lol. Sarah.

Thanks Ruth. That is him. Didn't think of looking under John. He is definately James. Could still do with someone looking on 1891 to see if he's on there. Sarah.xxx.
