Preview:When tracing a family tree, unexpected situations may be found, and such was the case for my father-in-law, Henry John COWLEY. Henry John, known to family and friends as 'John', was born on 26 December 1898 in the Newhaven Poor Law Union Workhouse to Mildred COWLEY (b about 1878), an unmarried domestic servant of Rottingdean. There is no name for his father on the birth certificate, although on his subsequent marriage certificate, he gives his father as Joseph COWLEY (deceased). Joseph (1844-1930) was in fact Mildred's father, and Henry's grandfather.
