NOTE

Although John appears to have married in 1870, the 1871 census records him as single & living with his mother & step-father at The Queen's Head, Stalbridge, Dorset ??? Interestingly, a few doors away was living another relative of mine, Amelia Hatcher.

Susan was born c 1850 at Stalbridge, Dorset & died in 1899. Frederick was a House Painter & marr. Beatrice Duffett; Joseph a House Carpenter; Bernard a Mason (Journeyman) & Edgar a House Painter.

"Bert died a bachelor without a will and I remember they had to search for all the family and Mam (Gladys Jeans) received 100 pounds which was a fortune then." - memory of Mary Joyce Stone (From David Hindley)

The family was living at Cardiff, Glamorgan, Wales (1891). I can't read the street address. The 1901 census records the family at 45 Moorland Road, Roath St Saviour, Glamorgan, Wales.
