Talk:Robert Timothy Wildbore Houlton (1838-)

(copying or moving some from his father's talk page, in May 2017)

Robert or Timothy
This must be Timothy:

First name(s) 	ROBERT TIMOTHY WILDBORE Last name 	HOULTON Birth year 	1838 Birth quarter 	2 Registration month 	- Mother's last name 	- District 	MARYLEBONE

Ancestry.co.uk, quoting FreeBMD, says his birth was April 1838.

Here he is in the census April 2-3 1911 as a widowed father-in-law:

The rest of the household was:

In 1901 both he and his 66-yr-old wife Lucy were living with daughter and son-in-law:

So that fixes the ambiguity in one marriage transcription:

First name(s) 	ROBERT TIMOTHY WILDBORE Last name 	HOULTON Marriage quarter 	2 Marriage year 	1860 Registration month 	- MarriageFinder™ 	ROBERT TIMOTHY WILDBORE HOULTON married one of these people MARIA EMERTON, LUCY WARR District 	NEWPORT PAGNELL District number 	- County 	Buckinghamshire Country 	England Volume 	3A Page 	617

But there's no ambiguity in this alternative transcription: First name(s) 	Robert Timothy Last name 	Houlton Name note 	- Marriage year 	1860 Marriage date 	09 Apr 1860 Marriage place 	Newport Pagnell,Buckingham,England Father's first name(s) 	- Father's last name 	- Mother's first name(s) 	- Mother's last name 	- Spouse's first name(s) 	Lucy Spouse's last name 	Warr Spouse's father's first name(s) 	John Spouse's father's last name 	Warr Spouse's mother's first name(s) 	- Spouse's mother's last name 	- Place 	Newport Pagnell County 	Buckinghamshire Country 	England Record set 	England Marriages 1538-1973

This one mistranscribes his third name but confirms his father's name:

First name(s) 	Robert Timothy Wildlove Last name 	Houlton Name note 	- Marriage year 	1860 Marriage date 	09 Apr 1860 Marriage place 	Newport-Pagnell, Buckingham, England Father's first name(s) 	Joseph Father's last name 	Houlton Mother's first name(s) 	- Mother's last name 	- Spouse's first name(s) 	Lucy Spouse's last name 	Warr Spouse's father's first name(s) 	John Spouse's father's last name 	Warr Spouse's mother's first name(s) 	- Spouse's mother's last name 	- Residence 	Newport-Pagnell, Buckingham, England Place 	Newport-Pagnell County 	Buckinghamshire Country 	England Record set 	England Marriages 1538-1973

Here's his own family in 1871:

(The Sarah Dixon daughter seems to be out of place - maybe she was really a cousin.)
