Many thanks for this useful information Cwch. I am going to try to contact them to find my ancestor's (George Edward Anderson) birth/baptism record from the early 1830s.

Valda, would you know if Findmypast.com is the exclusive holder of the West Middlesex Family History Society marriage index please? (your post 16/1/2012 refers)

Thanks for that ReadyDale, all this info re the police has been really helpful. I saw the old maps and on one could see Queens Gardens where this family moved to after Yeomans Row. It doesn't exist now so it was good to see it so close to Yeomans.

Thanks again Valda - more good information.
I use Ancestry and don't have membership of Findmypast, too expensive to have both. So if anyone does and comes up with a record I would be very grateful, I could then use the PAYG to view.

Many thanks ReadyDale, that's a great bit of information I didn't know. How did you find out? Are there maps? It helps tie things in greatly as I have a Geo Anderson, Police Constable, aged 20, at Walton Street Police Station in the 1851 census! I have always associated this with my George Edward Anderson but no proof.

Hi Valda
Thanks again for your detailed response. You posed some interesting questions which I have tried to answer as follows:-
re Thomas' second marriage. I sent for two certificates on 11th Jan. Sarah's Death & Thomas' second Marriage to Sarah Thomas. They should arrive tomorrow or Wed.
His place of birth is Kensington on both 51 & 61. Turnham Green therefore remains a unresolved/mystery, why would George Edward have this as his place of birth. I had wondered about a connection between the first Sarah and TG.
The info you have found re Thomas Anderson and Sarah Duffin is essentially the same as mine. I have the actual parish record which says widower & widow. I have no way of connecting this Sarah Duffin to the death of Sarah Anderson in Feb 1840.
You mention Grosvenor Row, but this is in fact Yeomans Row.
6 Yeomans Row is the one factor that links everything apart from Edward Thomas Anderson 1826-1832.
George Edward, Edwin Thomas & Mary Sarah were all baptised together on 16/1/1842, abode = 6 Yeomans Row. I have Mary Sarah's birth certificate (yes - mothers maiden name Sarah Thomas), where born = 6 Yeomans Row. Sarah Anderson's (the first one) burial 20th Feb 1840 abode = Yeomans Row. The family of Sarah Mary Ann Thomas live in Yeomans Row (1841 census), parents and younger siblings. There are other facts that link the families from Yeomans Row to George Edward Anderson at his marriage in 1855.
Thanks for the tip re the police archives, I didn't know they existed.
All of which still leaves me to identify the maiden name of the first Sarah who died in 1840 and the probable mother to George Edward. I was hoping for some clue from the 1831 census. There are references to various lists in this post but some mention a visit to Chiswick library which I am not able to do.

Thanks also to Valda for your replies. I have all this information and more which I have detailed in my reply to Dawn (hope that's OK).
As I say, I am looking to trace Thomas and the first Sarah back further. I say 'first Sarah' because I have found a marriage record of a Thomas Anderson and a Sarah Duffin. Both were widow/widower so maybe Thomas married three times. I was hoping that there were other records from Turnham Green that could verify who the first Sarah was. I have sent for her death certificate but don't hold out much hope for a maiden name.
Many thanks
