Henry Davey EDWARDS

[annabananae]

Hi,

Would someone please help me find the birth of Henry Davey/Davy Edwards who is the son of Richard Edwards and Elizabeth Davy, born most likely in Australia. He was a husband to Emily Haines Beckwith, and their marriage would also be very helpful. Emily was born 2 April 1864 in South Australia. This site is wonderful!

Hi again

I am more than prepared to help you but please post a thank you for any information that has been found for you....not only is it courteous, but more importantly lets the board know you have read the response and whether or not it was correct or useful.   Please accept this suggestion in the spirit in which it was made

Will have a search for you now.

Cheers

I can't see a marriage in the indexes for the parents of Henry Davey EDWARDS but 9 years after the birth of Henry, they went on to have 7 more children, the last being born in 1876.

Will have another search just in case the marriage was mistranscribed.

Cheers

Hi
I have an old family photo album without many of the names to go with the photos. I googled one name I do have- on the back of one photo- Emily H Beckwith-the photo is of a man, possibly H Edwards.
Just wondering if this could be your relation?
The album came from my great aunt's estate (Annie von Allworden who married a Jack Foody later in life)
