Hi I am trying to find out about Frederick Eastbury born around 1868. There is no birth record, no census records until 1901 when he appears in Rotherham (my home town). There are a lot of Eastbury's in Shipston on Stour and Frederick and my great grandmother, Sarah Ann Sleight moved to Walsall for a while during the 1890's. This is not a common surname, so if anyone has any connection i would like to hear from you. Thanks, Elaine.
