You were spot on with the HARES family -  should have read AYRES.
Edwin was born to Ann STEVENS in late 1861 and she then married James AYRES late the next year.
They went on to have 9 more children and both lived to a ripe age.
Many thanks for your suggestion -  I would never have looked so laterally.  :)

Am looking for parents of Edwin STEVENS born 1862/3 at Bledlow Ridge.
Can find him on the 1881 census after his marriage to Clara Ann HATT living at Piggotts Common, Hughenden but cannot find him on the 1871 census.
Any suggestions would be welcome.

Am looking for a marriage for Mary MURGATROYD born 1848 in Heaton, Bradford, Yorkshire, daughter of Abraham MURGATROYD and Mary (Nee CRAVEN)
It is thought she emigrated to USA. Can't find her after 1861 on UK Census.
Can't find her in USA under MURGATROYD so am presuming she married before she went.
Thanks

World War One / Ox & Bucks LI - William Stuart Mounce 9995

Could anyone enlighten me as to why a soldier would not go with his Battalion to France?
William Mounce enlisted in the Ox & Bucks in March 1914 and was posted to Letter B Company of the 2nd Battalion Ox & Bucks LI ( this information from the Research and Archives Section). This Battalion went to France on 13 August. However on William's Medal Roll Index Card it states he did not get to France until 29 Nov 1914. Where had he been for the last 3 months ?
Any ideas would be welcome. Thanks.
