I have a thread about this individual over at the Genealogists' Forum, but I wanted to raise the topic here so as to bring in a wider group of people and hopefully find some answers... although I'm not feeling optimistic.
So far I have only found two pieces of evidence relating to Edwin:
1) His birth was registered in Egham:
Births Dec 1883
HOOKER Edwin Henry Windsor 2c 429
2) He appears on the 1891 census with his (possible) father.
Much of the thread I linked to above is about Edwin's father's housekeeper, who may or may not have been Edwin's mother. At some point I will probably order the birth certificate, as it would be nice to confirm this either way, but even knowing who his parents were is unlikely to help me trace what happened to him after the 1891 census.
I cannot find any marriages or deaths relating to that name; I've tried all manner of searches with various criteria but can't seem to get anywhere. No doubt there are numerous possibilities as to what could have happened to him, but it's all speculation at this point.
Any ideas? Can anyone help me find out who Edwin was, and what became of him?
