"Uncle Charlie" in Nesconset on his 'farm'

Thanks to the help of a really super sleuth researcher on www.British-genealogy.com we now have the four oldest of Charles and Bessie's children on the 1891 census. This has also told us that Daniel's name was John Daniel and that he was born in London, not British Columbia as he said on his immigration into New York. His sister Harriet Sarah was born in Dublin and that birthplace is correct on the census. Margaret Annie is listed as M G Seymour but her birthplace of Darlington is correct. This means that C G is Charles and we can only hope that his birthplace of Southport is correct too. I have sent for the certificates. The picture is the man that was known as Uncle Charlie. We are now pretty certain that he was really John Daniel and that he married Fani while still married to at least one other wife.
I love this family.
I can see a huge likeness between this man and my dad and the likeness between him and other members of the family is scarey.
