Bishop Stortford Death in 1984
« on: Tuesday 23 September 14 22:02 BST (UK) »
Hi, Can anyone help with information about Christopher Eric Pleydell WILTON who died at Bishop Stortford in 1984. I know he married a Marion COOPER in Bengal India on 8th April 1922. I am trying to find out if he had any children.  He is part of my WILTON family research.
Thanks Marg

You could see if he left a Will, if so that could well mention any children he had.
Too late for the part of the Probate index that is online, but you could check in London or apply for a search.

Who registered his death? Was that his widow, or a son/daughter?
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex

Thanks
Looks like Diana became a nurse and went to S.Rhodesia in 1958. She would have been 29yrs old by then. Now I have to wonder what happened to her. Married?? Died?? and where.
Still hoping to find a newspaper report of her father (Christopher) death.
