William was
born on 24th February 1882. He was the son of John
Howey and his wife Eleanor (nee Bell) and his birth was
registered in the Tynemouth Registration District and
was given the middle name of Watson which was his
paternal Grandmother's maiden name. He

that the family lived at 11 W. Percy Street and that

the June quarter of 1882. |
