Merry Christmas one & all,

I am looking for anything on the Watts family, who lived in the Watford Area back in the fifties.

Many thanks!

Merry Christmas. Are we talking 1950s? If so, dont mention the names of anyone who may still be alive as this is against RootChat policy.

There are a variety of births, marriages and deaths in Watford for people called Watts in both the 1850's and 1950's.
So probably more than one family living there in either century.
So definitely some more information needed.

Thank-you

Hi

There are (at least) 2 separate streams (known to me) of that surname in the area.

Would you supply details of the family that you are looking for?

Regards

I didn't know the Watts family that well, I wish I did, my search is actually for two brothers that I was acquainted with back in the fifties, especially Bernard. The brothers were smashing young men of whom I am curious as to their whereabouts. So many years have gone by. Cheers to you all!

Update note for Rootschatters reading this . . . . .


Details of the brothers were found.

Unfortunately, they seem to be no longer with us.
