Florence & Ernest Tonks
« on: Saturday 03 May 25 19:25 BST (UK) »
1877 Reuben Tonks married Elizabeth Freeth.
In the 1911 census Elizabeth is living at 163 Herbert St. Small Heath, Birmingham with six children.
The census records that Reuben and Elizabeth had eleven children, of which two had died.

Florence Louise born 1893 died 1894 and Ernest born 1892 and died ??

Can anyone see any details of birth/baptism dates and burial details for Florence and Ernest?

Looks a good shout. Son Percy's birth was registered in Stourbridge in 1894

Thanks for looking.

Ernest Tonks 1892 Q4 mmn Freeth , 6b 776 West Bromwich

In FreeReg, I found Ernest Tonks Baptism 5 Oct 1892 , Oldbury
parents Reuben & Elizabeth, living 6 Chapel Street, Rounds Green (which today is an industrial estate)

I couldn't find any deaths/burials for Ernest in FreeReg.
The record for Ernest Tonks you found, Jun qtr 1893 6c 78, is probably the one.

You can always double check with the certificate(s) if you want to be certain.
