You said only one son of DMW survived, but I can't see a death for either of them. Are you sure one is dec'd? (I can only positively identify one of them (the younger one) on 192.com so am guessing it's the elder one who died?

Hi Merry - I think what I meant was that DMW had a son and that that son was still alive (so far as I can tell).

I hadn't realised then that he also had a second son! - he also still seems to be alive still.

Hope that makes sense - sorry for any confusion :o

Am pming you.......

Thank you to Merry :):):):):)

Going back a bit, John Dowsett's birth cert has just arrived - registered as John, (not John Arthur), father John, wife Ann Smith (:d) - I think I may have found their marriage and Banns in Camden in 1886
