Hi Chris Did you know that the GRO has an online index giving mothers maiden name. In your case I think the entry has a hyphen indicating usually the same surname, and possibly out of marriage.

Hi John, thank you for your information. I am not surprised that the mothers name is blank but this is very interesting and I wondered whatever happened to this Henry. How do I access the GRO index which has the details and would it contain the fathers name? regards Chris Bowden On 12/05/2017 13:46, John Cresswell wrote: > Hi Chris > Did you know that the GRO has an online index giving mothers maiden name. > In your case I think the entry has a hyphen indicating usually > the same surname, and possibly out of marriage. > Regards > John > > On 12/05/2017 13:34, Chris Bowden via DERBYSGEN wrote: >> Hi all, I have found the registration at High Peak for the birth of >> Henry Bowden Jul-Sept 1837.

Don't know if this helps or muddies the water There is a baptism for Henry Bowden 10 Sept 1837 at Hayfield, Derbyshire. Parents Joseph & Elizabeth Bowden Hayfield is in the High Peak Registration District so this may be that particular birth.
