Looking for George Henry Moon Oakes

[Herbie56]

I am trying to find the wherabouts of my Grandfather. he was born in Basford on 24th nov 1890.his mother was Elizabeth Oakes.(no father on the certificate). he married a Louisa Hollis in 1909. He then Married my Grandmother Maud Cooper, (didn't tell his first wife) I was told he moved  away around 1939/40. he had a relative who owned a sports arcade on Plumstead Rd. London.thank you..

Hi Herbie, is it possible that George remarried ie:-

George H M Oakes to Maud Cooper June qtr 1916 Sheffield 9c 976 ?

Also found his Medal Card for WW1:-

George H M Oakes both the Victory and British Medals, he served with the South Staffordshire Regiment Labour Corp, Regimental Nos: 29518, 15764

Cannot readily locate a death for him though?

Thanks very much for the reply. yes he did marry again,maud Cooper was my grandmother..unfortunatly he did'nt divorce his first wife  . he had a daughter from his first marriage that I know of.Doris Cynthia..she married a Fred smith in 1932. lost all contact with them.apart from knowing they were in the Woolwich area. thanks again..
