Hi Carol Was your William Joseph Moy born in Brighton? I have seen one who is a fireman on the 1901 census born brighton 1868 age 33. Middle initial is J.

I am trying to find details of Herbert after 1891 the rest of the family as shown on 1891 (1837 online) says they lived at 1 Cross Street, Christchurch Southwark, this only shows William (Head) Charlotte (Wife) Isabella (daughter) Alfred (Son) Gordon (Son) an Grace Lambert (Servant) and Alfred Carlow (Servant) no mention of Son William. family did live in Brighton, don't know what year they left. Carol

....you will have to look through the BMD indexes to find possibles marriages for the daughters.......

the only Herbert MOy I can see in 1891 is a patient in Hemel Hempstead Hertfordshire !

Could this be Herbert in 1901 with a family by the name of Mittag Name: Herbert E Mey Age: 19 Estimated birth year: abt 1882 Relation: Boarder Household: View other family members Gender: Male Where born: Brighton, Sussex, England Civil parish: Croydon Ecclesiastical parish: Thornton Heath St Paul County/Island: Surrey Country: England Source information: RG13/646 Registration district: Croydon Sub-registration district: Croydon ED, institution, or vessel: 70 Folio: 46 Page: 19

This all seems to be making sense, the family came from Brighton to London. I know daughters Elizabeth married Philip Dudley. Henry died 1874. Alfred married Emily Sholl. Isabella married John Blanchard. Herbert perhaps this is him with Croydon Family. Gordon married ? when ?. Thanks to all for your help. Very much appreciated. Carol
