Can anyone find the birth, marriage or death of a Joseph Allington/Arnold born 1825. His parents were John Arnold 1802 and Mary Allington 1806. They married in 1827 so Joseph may be registered as either or both names. Can't find him on Census either. All born Shoreditch/Whitechapel/Bishopsgate area. Marriage: St Leonards Church, Shoreditch.

Registration didn't begin until 1837...the best you can hope for is his baptism, for which you will need to look at Parish records. If you can't find him on a census, maybe he died before registration came in............ Have you looked on the FULL records for either a marriage or death? Reg

Yes Pam, that's the family but I can't find a birth, marriage or death for Joseph. Any ideas? Reg, Have looked at full records and Parish Records for christening but nothing. Pam has found the family on 1841 Census so Joseph most definately existed.
