whitehead/sullivan wedding

That's possibly Ballincollig barracks, outside Cork.

Does it say where he was discharged from and intended address?

[rosie99]

The address is Balsall Street,  Berkswell, Nr Coventry which is also where his father and the family were mentioned as living earlier.  Sorry I should have added that it looks as though it's been written in pencil.

I think that 1913 Coventry RD death is his.

very interesting as far as I know there is no Robert in the family. I wonder if for some reason he  changed his name for some reason. he was my grandfathers brother and until the other day I was led to believe he was lost in battle.   thank you.

[kwickme]

can I thank everybody for all the help they are giving me , I am so very grateful I could not have done it on my own.

[heywood]

It's intriguing.

We know the army man is yours and it looks as though Robert is him. I wonder if he used that name to get married - perhaps without permission.
