George Welham (junior) 1853-after 1888.

George Welham, the third son of George Welham and Eliza (Wright), was baptised in Battisford in March 1853 and seems to have lived there all his life.

He was married there on 13th November 1880. The groom was George Welham, aged 27 and the son of George Welham, labourer. The bride was Sarah Scopes, aged 26, and the daughter of George Scopes, labourer.

Their seven children were all baptised in Battisford and George was described as a labourer in each case.

The children were William George (baptised 1 January 1882), Ernest Henry (baptised 8th May 1888), Annie Mary, Herbert and John (all baptised 23rd September 1888), Frederick Charles (baptised 9th November 1890) and Edith Ellen (baptised 22nd May 1892). Again the 1891 census data should give the ages of the three children all baptised together in September 1888.
