I have a marriage certificate for Charles Hare 1867 in Horncastle his father is Titus I sent away for Charles birth certificate and it said father was Charles, I am sure I ordered the right one. I had worked it out from all the census's that I had and I am sure this is the right birth as there was no more Charles Hare's that time so I am a bit confused. If his father had two christian names why would he of put different names on these two....any help on this one please. Sue

Researching:
Ringrose from Countesthorpe Lord and Burley from Countesthorpe...Dixon Dawson Wood and Wilkinson from Caistor ,Starkey and Wood from Edendam. Hare from Horncastle.

Hello Jess, Thanks for replying to my question. I have 1851 Charles born Brigstock age 13 1861 bn Horncastle age 21 1871 bn Brigstock age 35 1881 bn Brigstock age 38 1891 bn Braisworth Northants age 30 1901 bn Brickstock Northants age 59 he died 1904 he was 63 so that makes his birth 1841, but the only one I found for that year was Charles and his father was called Charles, so this one is very confusing note all the different age years on the census and places of birth.. Sue I can't find a Titus on any census.........
