Thank you very much Gins and safc.

Where did you get this info from?

It looks as if these were his brothers and sisters, I know that Thomas and Henry were twins. I;m not sure about that marriage for John and Martha, The children were all born 1790's and John and Martha married 1769 so that doesn't seem to fit.

The 1851 census for Abraham is looking good as I know Lydia Jane Greensides is Thomas;s daughter,

Thanks again

Jane

Please can someone see if they can find anything else out about this family. I have searched familysearch and I cannot find them. I know Thomas and Henrys father was John greenside/s but I do not know who their mother was or if there were any other children.

Thanks for helping me

Thank you so much AustinQ

I didn't realise he was a twin. I did know about Harry but had him down as being born a different year. I will have to see if I can find his Seamans Pouch.

All the best
