Research Notes

• The attached father is James, but William’s marriage record clearly has his father’s name written John. James does have a son called William of the correct age, but otherwise there is no reason to believe that James is this William’s father.

• Possible birth in Brighton:

EDE, WILLIAM; Mother’s Maiden Name: WALDER; GRO Reference: 1839 D Quarter in BRIGHTHELMSTON Volume 07 Page 231 - this is most likely not him, probably being the child of Richard Ede and Harriet Walder who married in Brighton on 17 Oct 1832.^[9]
