Didnt realise ggg grandpa charles was on bcc is he a new addition?This gives me proof of his connection to john as id found jno griffiths on IGI but wasnt sure if that was john or how to prove it,but now you have thankx.Matilda is johns sister in a lodging house. Im hoping all this will help me somehow find Charles birth details as this is where i have been stuck for years hence the thread i posted earlier.There is no trace of a charles birth in the area at the time suggested by census details so wondering if charles may have been his second name but realy dont know how to move forward from here

Or have i got it wrong because jno's dates and john's dates dont match !!!!!!!!!!! any clues on jno??? S

we know that JOhn that married Mary Pardoe has a father Charles
the question is is it the Charles on 1841 with wife Elizabeth and dau Matilda
dunno
that is why I have only added in Charles
