    3. Hello All Here's a bit of trivia concerning the 1891 census of Pembrokeshire. I've just found a fourth person with a Christian name Christmas. He has a brother named Ascension which must be quite unusual. For the Morse fans amongst you I haven't found an Endeavour yet. Gerry Lewis

    3. Hi Gerry and All A little more on unusual Christian names. Whilst my Great Uncle Christmas (Uncle Chris for short) was born on Christmas Day, the name of my GGGrandfather James POSTHUMOUS Lawson (born 1816) has left us all wondering!
