Death of Charles Salter of New Zealand, Calne

[MacGrigor]

Hello,

I am enquiring about my great-great-grandfather, Charles Salter. I don't know much about him. He married Mary Jane Moore in 1907, in Calne. By 1909, my great-grandfather was born in the hamlet of New Zealand. Charles was listed as a labourer. By Thomas Henry's 1937 wedding to Dorothy Scott, Charles is listed as William Charles, and there is no mention of him being dead. His wife died in 1950, in Calne. Can anyone help me?

Thanks,

Adam McGregor

Have you got a rough date of birth for him or found him on any censuses?

[MacGrigor]

Sadly the family do not appear on the 1911 census. They were living in a hamlet, so there's a chance they were overlooked. Seeing as they married between that census and the 1901 census, I don't know his age. His wife was born in 1883, in Hilmarton.

Got him in 1901 - marriage gives his father as Thomas and date of birth about 1885

Was about to ask the same.

 Well done Groom

[MacGrigor]

Yes, I've seen that one. But I can find no Charles who died with a birth date of 1885.

[MacGrigor]

Oh the marriage gives his father as Thomas?

He does appear on the 1911 with his wife & children in Calne

He does? I have never managed to locate such a record. Might I find it on Ancestry?
