i am looking for where this man was living in 1911. i have his wife of 4 years mabel forde (lever) living at home with her parents, in Merthyr Tydfi. he is not there. i then have his death in dec 1911. i have a feeling he may have been hospitalised somewhere although i have no idea where or for why, the only thing i have to go on is that he was a young man when he died so i am assuming he died of an illness.
Henry Bernard Forde born abt 1879 in Newport M, Glamorgan, Gwent, Monmouthshire. thats all i really know abut him.
many thanks

im sorry i didnt relise this was the case. its actually his movements between 1901 and 1911 i am looking for as he was a merchant sea engineer i think. but i do understand totally :)

have a look on this index of Welsh mariners
http://www.welshmariners.org.uk/search.php
The record gives his certificate number which you need to trace his records. Also that the ship he was on went missing in December 1911.

Small world! My ggrandparents were the other side of the road in number 59 in 1901. I found the death of my ggrandmother's brother on the same site that showed Henry's death.

oh my. it is a small world isnt it! was your ancestor aboard the same ship?
-
no, he died at sea ( off the coast of Burma ) some years earlier on a ship out of Swansea.

Hi, I am Mabel and Bernard's great grand-daughter. I have always been told that he was lost at sea. My grandfather was Harold Bernard Forde who immigrated to the U.S. in the early 1900's. They had another son, Norman. I have been looking for relatives of my great grandparents for a long time. I have a collection of post cards that Bernard wrote to Mabel in the early 1900's. Please contact me through this website if you have any more information on them. Thanks, Laura

I am so excited to hear from you, but can't figure out how to personal message you. I have read through the help section but the pm icons are not visible on my end. Maybe if I post a few more times. *

hi laura, you cant message as you havent made enough posts yet im afraid. also its not a great idea to post your details like that on these threads, in fact i think that the mods may remove your details although im not sure fb counts as 'personal details' ;D
i will try to find you on fb. :)
-
Well I don't have to approve them as friends if anyone else sends me a friend request. But I will look for you.
