More Research is Needed: Possible Incorrect Mother
Cecil was born about 1879.[1][2] Cecil Butcher married Hazel Evelyn Rouch in 1907.[3] She passed away sometime between the birth of their son Cyril in 1908 and 1910.[4][5]
He then moved to Missouri where he married Matilda Wear in 1912.[6]
He went by the names George and Charles in census records after this stating he was born in Illinois along with his parents.[7][8][9]
Research Notes
If Cyril Emery was baptized in 1880, then he could not be born in 1885.
Birth registry for Cyril Emory in 1879 in Spilsby shows a mother with maiden name of "Harding"[10]
Esther, Florence and William all show mother's maiden name to be Harding on their birth registration. William's middle name is actually Harding.
Cyril's mother, Jane Harding, was born in Yarmouth, Norfolk, as shown in the 1881 census attached to the profile.
I found a Jane Calver Butcher born in 1836, baptized 8 Oct 1836, in Lowestoft, Suffolk. She was the daughter of Samuel Butcher and Sarah Shaul. She was a Butcher by birth, not marriage.[11]
