Thank you Shaun.

The plot thickens... As far as we knew he was born Henry Munday and later adopted the surname Webb - so it looks like he was born Henry Surridge, picked up Munday (either from stepfather or when parents got married I guess?) and then later picked up Webb from the gypsies?!

We've ordered Henry Surridge's birth certificate so hopefully that will help answer some questions...

That's him!  :o

It must be?

Do you mind if I ask where you found this? Was it free BMD?

So Henry Munday was his step father?!

And if Henry Harold Munday was his step father, that could explain the bad blood and why he ran away from home?

Hi Shaun, glad it's not just you - this is a predicament we've pondered too.

We don't know if Martha was his mother - as far we know, yes she is and that he never had a step mother. It would have meant Harry was 11 years older than his brother Sid - quite a difference. Was he born out of wedlock to Henry and Martha? Maybe. We just aren't sure.

It's all very odd. But as far as we know, he never had a step father/mother etc but it's a possibility. They seem to have moved around quite a bit too.  ???

Haha absolutely! :)

Thanks for the tips LarkSpur, much appreciated.

This thread has gone a little off topic from the subject but never mind lol. All the best with yours hopefully we'll speak again soon.
