My gmother was one of 12 and I've found details of all of them except one -
Joshua.
My mother says she believes he "died young" but has no other information.
Other children in the family were born between 1859 and 1876, initially in the
Cranborne/Crichel/Witchampton area and after 1864 in Holdenhurst, near
Bournemouth. There was one Joshua FREEBORNE whose death was registered in
1864 but he is not the one. I have not been able to find him in the relevant
censuses or lists of births.

Any ideas please? I suppose it's possible his birth was not registered?

Thanks in anticipation! Bob Cameron. Other family interest - TRIM.
