Selch Family from March Cambridgeshire
« on: Sunday 15 July 07 13:05 BST (UK) »

Hello,

I am trying to find details on a Policeman from Sheffield who was killed in action during WW1. His name was Frederick William Selch. I think he may be from March, Cambridgshire. I wonder if anybody could help me.

The 1881 census shows a possible family who could be his mother and father

1881 Boot & Shoe yard, March Cambridgeshire
John Selch aged 28, Bricklayer
Emily Selch aged 25 Wife
Emily Selch aged 2 Daughter

I think John and Emily may have got married in 1876 at Thetford

I also think Emily may have died in 1894, so she wouldn't be on the 1901 census.

I wonder if anybody could give  me details which confirm these are the parents of Frederick William Selch

Thanks in advance

Robert.

Thanks for the info Ricky. I think that confirms I was looking at the right family. If anybody could confirm Emily's death and possibly tell me where the family were in 1901.

Also I think I said Frederick was a policeman - well he could also have been a fireman, I have yet to confirm which.

Hello Ricky,

the first Emily must be the daughter from the 1881 census
