Hi Coral 1,

Welcome to Rootschat  :D  :D

I see William Sabin was born in Luton, Bedfordshire according to 1891 and Warwick according to 1901.

This is the one match I can see in 1861:

Sarah Sabin, lodger, wid, 35, Straw Bonnet Maker, b. do
William Sabin, boarder, 1, b. Bedfordshire Luton
John Bull, boarder, unm, 62, Labourer, b. Warwickshire Gaydon

The IGI at www.familysearch.org has a christening at Luton:

WILLIAM SABIN 
Christening 6 January 1861   Saint Mary, Luton, Bedford
Father Thomas Sabin, mother Sarah

No other christenings for this couple in the same batch, unfortunately.

John Bowns:

It seems the earlier spelling of his name was Bounds - that's the way I can see it in 1871, 1861 and
1851
HO107/2081 189 20
Blaby, Leicestershire
Chapel Street
Richard Bounds, head, 55, F.W.K*, b. Blaby
Elizth, wife, 56, ditto, b. do.
Jno, son, mar, 20, ditto, b. do.
Eliza, son's wife, mar, 19, ditto, b. do.

F.W.K. stands for Frame Work Knitter, I believe.

Have a look on the IGI for them (surname Bowns) - You will find the children's christenings.

Also the marriage of Richard Bowns to Elizabeth Norton on 7 November 1814 at Blaby.

Thankyou for all your help. At last I am getting somewhere.
William Sabin is my Gt Grandfather. I know he was born in 1861 thats in the family bible, so the age fits.
So his mothers name was Sarah now all i need is his fathers name.
Once again thanks
 From Coral

Once again thanks for the help with the bowns side of my family. You are right about the Frame work Knitter. The whole family is littered with these and Griswold stocking knitters.

Hi Coral,

A James Bown, born Desford 1830, married my 2x cousin 4x removed Hannah Grudgings, in Desford in 1858.  They had 5 children, all born Desford.  James died in 1890, with the death registered in Ashby de la Zouch.

Any links?
