Hi Claude

Have you got the family on the 1911 census - just wondering what Harry's place of birth is listed as there.  I think they are in the Islington district of London and playing around with the index appears to give Northamptonshire as his birthplace http://www.1911census.co.uk/

There is this possibility ..............

1891 - Bunker's Hill, Higham Ferrers, Northamptonshire

George COX head mar 36 ag lab b.Warmington Northants
Sarah wife A wife 36 b.Warmington
John son 12 b.Dutton
George son 10 b.Elton
Harry son 9 b.Warmington
Charles son 5 b.Newton
Mabel dau 3 b.Higham Ferrers
Arthur son 3m b.Higham Ferrers
Edward WETHERINGTON? lodger unm 25 lab in brick works b.Warmington

RG12/1210 folio 57 page 28

Thanks so much for your help.  Have not found him on any census yet.
All I know like I said is that Harry grew up in Margate.
I know that Harry died around 1938 at same address.
Will keep searching.  Any advise or help would be greatly appreciated.
Marriage certificate for Harry and Beatrice only tells me his father was George and a Carter by trade.

Thanks wendy, did see that but on his marriage certificate date of marriage is 19th May, 1907.  His age is stated as 25.  So 1884 birth seems a bit out.

Cheers, Cheryl
