His father is living with rellies in London, but no sign of the parents or siblings. Also his mother seems to have vanished as well!! Oh well at least my gtgrandmother was listed this time. First time since 1871. Rosalind

	I've found a bit of info that I didn't have. Unfortunately the family I really wanted and thought I'd find weren't there, so I'm a bit fed up with it at the moment.

I'm refusing to add up what I have spent - mostly though I have used transcriptions and the advanced free search but I have got two originals and smashing they are too:))
