In my previous message - you will see the (Humphrey FOWLER, children Amelia & Jasper) listed in the photos - are on the 1861 Census at Christchurch, Monmouthshire, Inspector of Police

May I suggest you might like to consider emailing Karen directly to ensure she sees your very kind offer. If you click on the Envelope icon next to her username against her post, you can contact her straight to her email inbox. I say this as she's only ever posted twice on the forum before, a few months ago, and may not still be a regular forum reader. (You can also see this useful info by clicking on her username).

I do hope this helps, Jeff.

ps You may even like to consider posting your pics onto the "Old Photos" section of this site; if you look around the site you'll see there is a huge amount of fantastic information available here, such as documents, books and photos, as well as the Parish Records and the Forum. We are SO lucky !

These may be of interest in your research.

Chris

The reason I am interested in Humphrey and Joseph is I am looking into Frederick Fowler who was my great great grandfather who married a Maria Davies Abergevenny 1892
I am trying to figure out which one was his father,
Frederick also had a son called Frederick Boswell Fowler b1894 Abergevenny, Married Matilda Harper, west Bromwich 1924. his father was called Frederick Boxton Fowler.
I found these unusual names from rootsweb Parish Records.

I am extremely grateful for any assistance as i am researching my tree on no budget lol

if you have any info on Joseph you can email me.

Thanks again

at the moment on the 1851 census for Scotland (Ancestry haven't been allowed to provide the whole census)

I can see a John P FOWLER, age 2 in Berwick, Glasgow St John, Infantry Barracks+ also in this Infantry Block

Jasper FOWLER, (Private) age 14, born Sodbury, Chipping, William FOWLER, Private Infantry Block, age 19, born Chipping Sodbury and Amelia FOWLER - 7 months.

Jasper FOWLER is on the 1881 Census at Gloucester - Asst Steward County Asylum (age 43 born Chipping Sodbury)

----

On later census, Elizabeth RYAN says she was born in New Windsor, Berkshire c1832

1841 Census, Berkshire, New Windsor, District Infantry Barracks, New Windsor (1st Battalion the 60th?)

listed under Soldiers Children:

Mary RYAN, 16 - not born in County - says born Ireland
Eliza RYAN - 9 - not born in County
Ellen RYAN 3 years and 4 months - not born in County
William RYAN - 0 or 6

-----

so it's a military/Scottish background to your family, hence problems with marriages etc.
