Hi all,

I started helping a friend with their family history two years ago. During this time I have tried on and off to research further back but always come to dead ends.

Charles Osborne married Jane Welch in Holborn in 1928, his father was also Charles and he married Annie Thompson in 1905, Islington, London. The marriage record of Charles to Annie show that his father was Edward Osborne a butcher by trade.

Unfortunately, I cannot tie Charles in with his father Edward Osborne on any Census records so am still getting nowhere fast!! :confused:

Anyone got any ideas which might help me to solve this mystery?! Any help would be very much appreciated. :)

Thanks for taking the time out to read my post.

Christine

you may wish to check out these census records for Edward (1880)

1881 RG 11-413-94-59 Edward under 1
1891 RG 12-159-39-17 Edward 13 ?

marriages re above
spouse Julia Morris - Sep qtr 1871 Bethnal Green 1c 790
spouse Eliza Annie Manley - Seep qtr 1891 Islington 1b 548

I can't see Edwards brother Joseph (as on 1911 census) on 1901 census He should be about 9
