musson family look up
« on: Thursday 23 February 12 19:00 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to trace the Musson family who left Grantham in 1913, Arthur (b. 1880) & Elizabeth (b. 1884) with sons Maurice (b. 1906) and Cyril (b. 1908), would anyone
be able to look up maybe death records for them to give an idea where they were? Or maybe marriage records for the two sons please? Any help much appreciated Bertie

Maurice Arthur (b 19 Oct 1905) died Nottingham May 1987, perhaps married Basford (Notts) 1935 to Hilda A JACKLIN

George Cyril (but Cyril George in 1911) ... can't find him after 1911.
Today I broke my personal record for most consecutive days alive.

Thanks Geoff, what's the easiest way to tracing where they were living in Nottingham?
Any death results for the parents? Thanks again Bertie

The problem with MUSSONs is that they all lived within 20 miles of Grantham http://gbnames.publicprofiler.org/Map.aspx?name=MUSSON&year=1881&altyear=1998&country=GB&type=name

(I know because my cousin had a MUSSON grandma.)

If you can't find them where you expect to find them and someone of the same name turns up 10 miles away, you're not sure if it's the right one or not.  :-\

As an example, I can see the deaths of an Arthur
Q4 1943 aged 65, Basford (Notts)
Q1 1964 aged 84, Bourne

and Elizabeth,
Q1 1937 (54) Nottingham
Q2 1968 (83) Grantham

???

My guess would be Arthur reg Bourne and Elizabeth reg Grantham, as they were from this area, maybe.
Would anyone be able to look up Bourne school registers for the children Maurice and Cyril, we know they left Grantham in 1913 so maybe they went to Bourne? Thank again Bertie

I am trying to trace me father's history from 1907 to 1956 when he married my mother. His name was George Cyril Musson , born 1907, lived in Grantham but then i know they moved to Hucknall, Nottingham at some point. He had a brother Maurice and a sister Muriel, the latter for which I know virtually nothing. Any help appreciated - just starting out on this process.
