1880 HARDING Albert George, Cornelius & Ann, Ruardean Labourer Ruardean

Cornelius also goes under the name Thomas, maybe this is him, right Church & locality ?

1886 HARDING Annie Elizabeth Frances, Thomas, [not stated], Reddings Collier East Dean Methodist

"Reddings" is difficult to place on modern maps, internet searching may lead you to Reddings Lane near Staunton/Coleford, this is not the same place. I only know of the Reddings as it's my father's home area, roughly same area as Moorwood; by my way of thinking it's on the northern side of Ruardean Hill, overlooking Courtfield on the Wye, just before reaching Joys Green enroute southwest from Ruardean village towards Upper Lydbrook.

Could these Marriage PRs be other sons, right ages ?

Note witness Frederick Charles Harding, another possible son?, but seems unlikely given the Birth Record; I'd have guessed this would have been registered at Monmouth for a father in the Ruardean area, also mother not Joanna Davis, so ??

From GlosBMD;
Birth Details

Child Surname Child Forename Father Surname Mother Surname Mother's Former Name Year District Office Register Entry
HARDING Fred Charles HARDING HARDING SIMMONDS 1892 Forest of Dean Westbury on Severn, Newnham 63 382

HOWEVER, also from GlosBMD we find, also at Newnham Office, is this Charlotte Ann bap1865, or a different child ?;

Birth Details

Child Surname Child Forename Father Surname Mother Surname Mother's Former Name Year District Office Register Entry
HARDING Annie HARDING HARDING DAVIS 1864 Forest of Dean Westbury on Severn, Newnham 25 253
