Looking for John Cunningham born c1907

[tracybsmith]

I'm looking for the descendants of my grandfather Joseph's brother John Cunningham. John was born in York. The family were living in York on the 1911 census. They also had a sister born 1911. Their parents were Joseph and Nancy/Annie nee McGuire. Their father Joseph was to die in WW1 in 1916. Their mother wdudnt remarry but had two other children both girls. One was called Margaret I think the other was Doreen

John W Cunningham - York East ...

1911 - only one York registration for a female
Martha Cunningham - York East ...
Joseph Cunningham married Nancy Maguire mar qtr 1903 - I can't see them going 5 years before having their first child - so maybe there is an older sibling to John and Martha ??...I will see what I can find

If you get the birth certificate for John for exact date of birth, you can then try and find him on 1939 to see who he is living with.

[chempat]

A free search of the 1939 gives a John W Cunningham living in Leeds in 1939 with Louisa, 1 other person and 1 closed record.   By elimination his date of birth is 14th June 1908.

By elimination other person is Mary, born 1934

[chempat]

Possible marriage for Mary
Marriages June quarter 1957   
Mary C Cunningham    Leeds   
 Terence Flanagan    Leeds   

Birth?
Births March quarter 1935
Mary C Cunningham mmn  Bond    Leeds North   

Parents?  Mother not a Louisa?  Marriage after birth
Marriages September quarter 1935
Kathleen M Bond    Leeds South   
James W Cunningham  Leeds South

Added
NO  :  James not John, apologies

Think this is probably completely wrong family.

My grandfather Joseph a Cunningham was the first born. I have his information it's his younger brother John I'm looking for

[tracybsmith]

My great grandfather died on 14th February 1916 at Ypres. He's buried in a war grave there. There was no third son Richard. Nancy had a sister Janey who married William Cunningham, Joseph's brother. Richard could have been theirs. They could have been in Bradford.
