    Notes 
    • It would be interesting to know how they met... James had his Banns read in his local parish of Poole, and clearly this was where they later settled. So perhaps Jane was working in Poole, but when home for the wedding....

      Witnesses were Richard DEAN, Ann GUY (X), John DEAN.

  • Notes 
    • The birth certificate and baptism transcript gives his name as James, but he seems to variously be James Albert and Albert James through his life.

      The baptism transcript has his birth as 16 Dec, but this is assumed to be a mistake.

      The address where James is in the 1861 Census is the same as his brother John is at the 1871 Census.
