Can anyone help me find more (earlier) information about my 2nd great grandfather Henry ALDRED. I have him in the 1861 census when he is living at 1 Ockendon Road, Islington with his wife and children. He gives his occupation as Professor of Dancing and his birth date as 1824 in Stoke Newington. Dancing may have been a family issue because his daughter, Rose Elizabeth continued as a music and dancing teacher. I would be grateful for any clues or information. Best Regards Peter
