Birth of William Shrub in FreeBMD in April-June 1869 in Westhampnett (2b 327) which included Appledram.
Christening of William Shrub in the IGI on 9 May 1869 in Appledram, Sussex, parents Job and Louisa (sic) Shrub. The same information is in Ancestry All England, Select Births and Christenings, 1538-1975.
In the 1871 census as William Shrubb aged 2, born in Arundel, Sussex, and living with his parents (Job and Ann), and three brothers (Charles, John and Tern) in Appledram, Sussex.
In the 1881 census as William Shrub aged 13, born in Arundel, Sussex and living with his parents (Job and Ann), two brothers (Charles and John), and sister (Jean) in Malvern Cottages, Wick, Leominster, Sussex (this address was shared with another family). I suspect this is Lyminster on A284 north of Wick.
His mother died in 1882 and his father in 1884, both in East Preston.
