1n 1909 Herbert Leslie Mumford married Emily Barber. In 1920 they lived in Granchester, nr Cambridge. Emily died 1922.

In 1924 Leslie H Mumford married Jessie G Brown in Cambridge.  They had a daughter Poppy, b 1926, and from 1929 they were living in Impington, nr Cambridge.
Herbert died Cambridge 13 Mar 1973 - age 88     

I'm trying to find Herbert's (or Leslie's) parents. Can anyone help.?

Who does he name as his father on the two marriage certs?

(Are you sure they are the same people btw?)


Death info implies a birth around 1885 - have you looked for a birth, or looked for him on 1891/1901/1911 censuses?
