Please help I'm tracing my family tree and I have a question that seems impossible to answer. My Great Granadad ( David Hadley) was born in circa 1872 in the 1881 census he is living with mum (Mary Hadley) Dad (Charles Hadley) two sisters, one brother and a cousin. His relation to the head (Charles) says SON. In the 1891 census he is living with a Margaret Cooper who is Head and a William Cooper (Son) to head and he (David Hadley) is also down as SON. Now I'm 99.9% sure that I have the correct David. Now before I went back to the 1881 census I thought he perhaps had a different dad but obviously the 1881 census contradicts that as there is a Charles Hadley that comes up as dad but more to the point he can't have two mums. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how he could have two mums, unless he was adopted, I just dont know. Please help? Also what suggestions do you have for tracing mothers and fathers before the 1837 birth records. Many thanks hope there is someone who can help. |
