Glamorganshire Lookup Requests / Frederick Thomas James
« on: Tuesday 09 January 24 09:07 GMT (UK)  »
Hello , I am looking for a date of death in Cardiff of the above , He was born 1879 but army records say about 1881/1882 . He enlisted in 1914 but was discharged in 1915 with heart trouble. He is in hospital on 1921 census in Cardiff and his wife and children were at home. He married Charlotte Ada Sweet in 1903.
It would be good to give closure with the date of death , possibly 1925 but not certain .
Thank you
Regards
Alan

Hello , does anyone know what time or times of year the electoral rolls were made up ? I am thinking of 1921 or 1922 ideally and would it have been different to 1921 census ?
