• Notes

  The most probable IGI (or any other internet) baptism record is as follows (for Henry William) baptism/christening date: 18 Apr 1819 baptism/christening place: St. George the Martyr, Southwark birth date: 20 Mar 1819 father's name: Henry Webb mother's name: Sarah indexing project (batch) number: C02244-2 But.... this would be south of the River Thames and so it is perhaps unlikely. Other possible siblings are Lydia Fisher (b 24/7/1816), bapt as above Amelia Elizabeth (b1821, bapt 1822 at St. Matthew, Bethnal Green), and Susannah, also bapt at St Matthew (b 1824, bapt 1824). However there is no obvious later record for these that would tie them to Henry and hopefully our Henry. Alternatively, and popularly on Ancestry, is a baptism 7 Feb1819 at St Mary the Virgin, Harefield. However this is even further away from Bethnal Green. Mother is Sarah. This is the only matching record on Ancestry, albeit that there are probably fewer than 50% of the records indexed. If Henry and Sarah are the parents, the only sensible record I can find is Henry WEBB/Sarah SCOTT at St Annes, Soho 14/8/1815. (There are marriages in 1804 in Bloomsbury and 1800 in Eastcheap. Eastcheap is in a good location, but I cannot find any other children) Also details on ancestry tree at http://trees.ancestry.co.uk/tree/10146355/family?cfpid=-689433788
