    • JAMES CLAYTON 1885-1900
      (revised 21.11.2004)

      The birth of a JAMES CLAYTON was registered in 1885 (GRO March 1885 Gainsborough 7a 768).

      He was living at 44 Waterworks Street, Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, in 1891:
      SAMUEL CLAYTON, head, aged 40, engineer fitter, born at Bradford, Yorkshire;
      LOUISA CLAYTON, wife, aged 40, born at Marston, Lincolnshire;
      CLARA A. CLAYTON, daughter, aged 11, scholar, born at Bradford;
      JAMES CLAYTON, son, aged 6, scholar, born at Gainsborough, Lincolnshire;
      LUKE LAMMING, boarder, aged 58, married, engineer fitter, born at Bradford.
      (RG12/2635/36/22)

      The death of a 15 year old JAMES CLAYTON was registered in 1900 (FreeBMD June 1900 Bradford Y 9b 48). This may or may not be the correct JAMES CLAYTON: the family moved to Gainsborough from Bradford circa 1885; were living at 44 Waterworks Street, Gainsborough, when CLARISSA EDGOOSE/SPAFFORD/LANGLEY died in 1894; but were back in Bradford in 1901.
