Hi AustinQ,

Many thanks for this, it does indeed look very promising. My grandfather was a stereotyper for the Times newspaper, and that is an industry where you needed a family member there in order to get an apprenticeship. I had wondered how he got the apprenticeship and this would explain it.

The fact that Leonard reverted to the surname Champion for his marriage and subsequent life suggest that either he never adopted the name Tiley or Harriett was never married to Francis Tiley. The latter would suggest that William and Harriett did not divorce giving the reason for William to lie about being a widower.

According to his marriage certificate, Leonard was living in Pier Road, Northfleet, Kent when he married, but this is within the Strood registration district. This suggests the Tiley family was living there - I'll check the census records. It also explains why Leonard disappears from all the records for 20 years and then reappears.

Many thanks for this.

Hi Chris Ho,

Many thanks for those links. I had found the one relating to Emilie Champion's will but not the one for William Harold's will. Arthur Louis was William Harold's brother and ended up in Margate running a dairy shop.
cheers
