    1. [SRY] Looking for Henry HANCOCK
    2. Spicer Bob
    3. Can any of the experts help me in my search, as I have exhausted all the avenues I know Henry James HANCOCK born 29th August 1841 Box Wiltshire married Ann GRIFFITHS (nee SMITH) on 9th July 1898 at St Barnabas church Kennington. They were widower and widow respectively. I can find them on the 1911 Census at 42 Victoria Road NW London. On the 1901 Census I can find no trace. There is a Henry HANCOCK born 1843 in Box, but he has different parents, and is not my Henry. I have traced Henry on the 1861 Census for Bradford Wiltshire, living with a wife Mary born Broughton Wiltshire and son Albert age 5m. In 1871 there is no trace of either In 1881 he is in Bow London with a wife Sarah born Graves End and 5 children, Alice, Arthur, Herbert, Albert, Olive. In the 1891 Census for Fulham London I find a Henry born 1849 Bristol Gloucestershire with wife Florence born 1861 Southall Middlesex and 3 of the children from 1881, Arthur, Albert, Olive. Their ages and place of birth match, and tie in with the GRO indexes from Freebmd I can find no verifiable marriages for any of the wives except Ann GRIFFITHS I have tried the online electoral rolls with no verifiable success except for Henry and Ann in 1920 at Weedington Street London I have been through Ancestry and Findmypast to get the originals, and tried most of the online suppliers of Census information as well as Familysearch, using their free indexes to no avail Many thanks
