Fittleton Wiltshire 1871 census look up request, John Whatley Ann Daniells

[hobnob123]

I am interested in the Fittleton Wiltshire 1871 census for John Whatley b 1828 if anyone could help please. John is married to Ann Daniells.

In 1871 I have just become aware  the family were living in Fittleton having moved about a bit in the area. I am interested in the names of the family children and if there is a Clara Julia Whatley b1862  in the census. Clara is my great great grandmother and was born in Chitterne according to her birth certificate. Her son is a John Staples Swain Whatley (not to be confused with the aforementioned John Whatley b1828). John SS Whatley has no recorded father on his birth certificate and it is this illegitimacy that interests me and I am on the hunt for answers especially with such an interesting name!

Hi,
Do you have information that makes you believe the father on the1884 baptism register is incorrect?

Also the address given is in Bath and not London?

Does he name a father on his marriage cert

Does he name a father on his marriage cer

Hi
Yes, John Staples Swain Whatley  is on the marriage certificate as father to John Staples Swain Whatley(married Ellen Ward) and is down as a farmer.
 My gran's dad John S S Whatley never talked about his father and as there is no name on his birth certificate so it's all quite intriguing. I noticed a John Staples Swayne but with a "y" not an "i" near Chitterne so could he be the reason Julia or Clara Julia went to London perhaps disgrace? Who knows?

Hi
I now don't doubt the father is correct with it being such a random name, it's I'm just trying to build a collection of supporting information to who he was. I have to say the Bath thing is weird, you're saying John baptised in Millwall but all moved to Bath?

I expected an address in the millwall area on the baptism register, but it reads as follows:

Baptism Tower Hamlets
Oct 19th 1884 born 18th July 1883

Parents
John staples swayne Watley a farmer
& Julia

Address East Cliffe, Steeple Laysford or could be Langsford, Bath
