Ooh, thanks, Merry. That's them.

I just wasn't sure I wasn't kidding myself about all the Daybus/Debus/Dabas children actually belonging to them, and if I was wrong I wanted someone to burst my bubble.

The 1884 question was just that there seemed to be a hole where a child should be.

I was going to give you the mmn for the various children, but I can't find any registrations!

I should think all those baptised children are the same family as the name combinations are not common. I'm wondering if they are all under a different surame for birth reg?

DAVIES, PHILIP mmn ANDERS
GRO Reference: 1871 M Quarter in LIVERPOOL Volume 08B Page 30

DAVIES, MARGARET mmn ANDERS
GRO Reference: 1876 D Quarter in LIVERPOOL Volume 08B Page 50

DAVIES, GEORGE mmn ANDERS
GRO Reference: 1878 J Quarter in WEST DERBY AND TOXTETH PARK Volume 08B Page 325

DAVIES, CHARLES mmn ENDES
GRO Reference: 1880 S Quarter in WEST DERBY AND TOXTETH PARK Volume 08B Page 366

DAVIES, ALBERT mmn ANDERS
GRO Reference: 1882 J Quarter in WEST DERBY Volume 08B Page 364

DAVIES, FLORENCE mmn ENDERS
GRO Reference: 1886 S Quarter in WEST DERBY Volume 08B Page 351

There could be more, but the GRO site is so tricky to search when the main surname is a common one, the forenames are unknown and the mmn has variable spellings.

Neither can I.

Ohhh wow, I walked out to get the Sunday paper in the box at the road and by the time I get back you've found them.

Thanks!

Oooh, well done! I woudn't have picked up that one, so you might want to try more spellings for the gap years!

Well I could kick myself. If you write "Dabus" in flowing copperplate it looks very much like the more common "Davies" of course!

lol OC - Makes me wonder if someone helpfully wrote their surname down for them, in nice copperplate, so that when they visited the register office it wouldn't be difficult to get their name across if their spoken English perhaps wasn't great? They dutifully kept the piece of paper somewhere safe to be used for each registration. Pity it said Davies on it!!

OC, please stop kicking yourself or I'll have to do worse to myself. Thanks for looking! I've been having an easier time now that I've reverted to D*s!

Merry, I think that's how I found Jacob a few minutes ago. Thanks so much. I think I've got civil registrations for all the known children now.*

Well, except John who was born in Germany. And that's another journey. Right now I have to go process the tomato harvest.

=============
*I'll keep looking but maybe by 1884 Elizabeth's system was getting a bit cranky and irregular? I think 1886 might be reasonably the end of the line as she was born in 1840.
