I don't have William's birth certificate to be absolutely sure, but in 1881 he was staying with Rebecca's sister Hannah where he was described as "nephew", so it looks pretty likely. Rebecca and her sister must have both been rather naughty girls, each having an illegitimate son! I haven't found any more children for either of them after their marriages.

I have Edward Holberry as dying in 1904; I haven't been able to find Rebecca in the 1911 census, and I haven't tracked down a death or remarriage for her, either. So what happened to her I really don't know!

Looks as if they were bad girls!!!!!  I had that death for Edward but hadn't got it down as a definite as he had been in Worksop.  If he isn't on the 1911 then I guess the probability increases!!!

Thanks for helping solve these mysteries!!
