Hi, Can any of you claim this one. He was born in the June Qtr. oF 1883. in Sandford St Martyn in Oxfordshire. He is shown in 1891, 1901 and 1911 censuses living with his Aunt and Uncle Smith. She was not an Elkington so I am not sure of the connection. I wondered if he was illegitimate or and orphan . Regards, JUDY ELKINGTON www.elkingtonfamily.com
