Title: Baptism Newington, Lookup please
Post by: bumbelina on Friday 08 October 10 22:46 BST (UK)

Good morning,
Is there someone who can look for the baptism of Henry Alfred GRIFFIN for me please.
According to the 1851 census he was born in Newington, Surrey and was 46 years old, which would mean he was born about 1805.
Looking for his parents names.
Many thanks,
Bumbelina

Is he the Henry the plumber married to Letitia BULLARD. If so I thinks she may have died Feb 1855, and he remarries in 1856 to Eliza CLARIDGE, where his father is named as Benjamin GRIFFIN, also a plumber.

There is a Benjamin and Mary GRIFFIN having children in Newington after 1813, and Benjamin was a Plumber.

Hi Eyesee,
Yes he was the Henry Griffin that married Letitia Bullard and he was a plumber too.
That is just fantastic, thank you so very much. It is always great to have another name to research.
Cheers
