Joshua & Jane Rebecca Pask née Harley

This information relates to Chart 10, the descendants of John & Frances Pask née Haffinden who originated from Thundersley, Essex.

I am still progressing with the London Births and Baptisms, 1813-1906 database available at http://www.ancestry.co.uk/. I have now found the baptisms for 11 of the 16 children of Joshua & Jane Rebecca Pask née Harley.

In the census of 2 April 1911, Joshua & Jane were living at Braemar Street, Bethnal Green, together with seven of their children Lillian, Clara, James, Ada, Lena, Arthur, and Alfred William Charles.

Fortunately the baptisms give the date of baptisms, and births, together with where the family lived, and Joshua's occupation. The 11 baptisms are for:
