Oh my, you go for a walk and when you come back your works all been done for you. Can put my feet up this afternoon now.

Thanks.

I do agree though, you do need the birth certificate of one of the children to verify mother's maiden name.

Thanks Dea. I hadn't looked for a birth for her but that's looking a bit hopeful. I think I'd splash out on a birth certificate for one of the children to be sure.

Catherine. If you are looking at 1851 Census that is the one I have and believe
to be correct I did not notice [Child] Charles B.1838 the others are correct Elizabeth
must been B. after census was taken. Charles Occupation states Coachman.
Maybe I have the wrong marriage for Charles but our family history states his wife as Ann but no maiden name.
Thanks Eileen

Catherine Report 29 Jan 2015 08:53

Was just wondering about these:-

Henry Child
26 Dec 1842 Camberwell St Giles Southwark Charles Child, Ann Child

Sarah Ann Child
10 Dec 1843 Camberwell St Giles Southwark Charles Child, Ann Child

Emma Child
30 Jul 1848 Camberwell St Giles Southwark Charles Child, Ann Child

Elizabeth Child
3 Aug 1851 Camberwell St Giles Southwark Charles Child, Ann Child

.........although occupation of Charles is Coachman and not Waiter as marriage cert. states. He may have changed his occupation so could be worth a look??

EDIT:-

This is the couple and children above:-
