Hope you all have your thinking caps on.
Henry Swain Dawson b.1861 (1st Qtr) Westminster, Middlesex - Mother Penelope Dawson (awaiting cert)
1861 - Not found
1871 - Pupil at a school in Weybridge Surrey - RG10; Piece: 803; Folio: 35; Page: 12 (mother working in Surrey in 71)
Now I have not been able to find him after 1871, his GG Grandaughter says he dropped the Dawson and was known only as Swain(e) but not sure when!
This is what she found

I can then find him on the 1891 Census as Henry Swaine living in Marple RG12; Piece: 2788; Folio 45; Page 5 and in the 1901 Census as Henry Swain living in Bredbury (he was a Railway Signalman), RG13; Piece: 3284; Folio: 87; Page: 25
he gives his place of Birth as Holbeach in Lincolnshire in 1891 which made me look for Penelope Dawson in Lincolnshire in 1861 and took me to Wrangle and the Swains and confirmed that Penelope was from Clenchwarton
Now I would love to find him in 61 and 81 to finish the puzzle
Thanks
