Thanks, so much Hugh. I do not have the birth certifacate of John, but I do have a copy of his baptism certificate, info on it as follows:
Alleged date of birth: Dec 1 / .1885
Date Baptized : Feb. 14 / 1886
Child's Cristian name: John
Parents name: John Erwin and Mary Large
Abode: Great Frances St.
Quality, Trade or Proffession: Telegraph

Baptism of John Large, in the Parish of Ashted, county of Bahm
dated 12th of January, 1917
It sounds like these are the same people, the ages are all correct. I wondered what "telegraph" meant.
Mothers maisen name was Hyett, (could be spelt Hyatt)
I now have a rough idea of when JEL was born, i will ty to find more about him. Thanks Hugh, Regards, Liz

Hello. Came across the thread for Ida Jessie Gundry - part of my line and I'm intrigued that you can take it back to 1500s! Have you put this tree online? I'd be happy to pas on details that you may not have already. Would be good to hear from you if you're still out there.
