Buckinghamshire Lookup Requests / Saward - Slough Bucks
« on: Monday 04 April 05 17:11 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have any information on Thomas Saward born in Slough Bucks in 1866/67. He has been found in 1871,1881,1891 and 1901 censuses and his marriages in 1885 and 1905 have been found, but so far no record of his birth/christening has been found.
Any help with his record of birth and who his father actually was (see below)would be very much appreciated.
In the 1871 census his father's name was shown as John (b c1840) and Thomas was listed as having been born in Islington, but in 1881 his father was given as Cornelius (b c1840- family listed as Sayward) and Thomas was given a birthplace of Slough. Slough is given in 1891 (name spelt Sawall) and 1901.
On his marriage cert in 1885 his father's name was given as Cornelius.
So far no records of birth for Cornelius or John have been positively found- although it is probable that Cornelius was the son of Elijah Saward (b c 1804 in Leigh on Sea). Census records prior to 1881 relating to Cornelius have also been found which indicate that he was born in 1840/1. It is possible that Thomas's father was a John Cornelius or a Cornelius John.
I desperately need more hard data re Thomas's birth - please can someone help.
