The baptismal record gives his name as Francis Aldred Eberall.  His siblings were all given the middle name Aldred, which was their maternal grandmother's surname, and their mother's middle name.  It was very unusual for children to be given their mother's surname.  Perhaps this was done to protect the father who was an important person, and/or married to someone else.
