I’ve decided to take a break away from the Phillips & Lennon sides and focus on Burton for a while, basically I’ve had a 1911 Census for Florence Burton - my Great Grandmother (married Thomas Tubridy in 1924- Great Grandfather) for such a long time and it lists her parents as George William Burton & Beatrice. I admit that for a while I did have the wrong birth attached to George (I had a Selby birth) but then I had a proper look at the birth details that came from the Census. Suffice to say I was eventually led to a few more Census records for a George W Burton born in Acomb, Yorkshire as a son to John Burton & Sophia Wright.
1911 Census-
One of the Census records (1901) included a familiar forename- Beatrice, the Surname being Broadbelt, shortly after there’s a marriage between a George William Burton & Beatrice Florence Broadbelt.
1901 Census-
Marriage-
Now it looks as if I’ve completed the puzzle doesn’t it? I haven’t at all. A random search of Family Search brought up something else. The baptisms for the children of John & Sophia Burton- John (1872), Eliza Sophia (1872), George (1864), George Wright (1878)
In case it doesn't work-
Search Results from Historical Records
1-5 of 5 results for Name: burton, Father Name: john, Mother Name: sophia, Batch Number:C03961-2
Now originally I have from the Census records- Herbert (1878), Ernest (1880), Mary (1868), Louisa Jane (1876), George W (1874) all born in either Great Ouseburn or Acomb, Yorkshire.
So the question is- which is right?
Thank you to anyone who wishes to attempt this nightmare
