Hello all,
I'm helping my friend to find her ancestors which now takes us to Wales.
Edward John Teagle was born about 1917 and I've found a BMD registration for 1st qtr 1917 in Merthyr Tydfil.
We have his marriage cert. which gives his age of 25, and father as Henry John Teagle (deceased) Electrician.
Would anyone be able to find his baptism, please? My friends father refused to talk about his family so
little is known other than they came from Wales.
Any help will be very welcome

Looking at FreeBMD I see that the mother's maiden name for Edward John is Nicholls
There is a marriage for a John Harry Teagle on the same page as a Dorothy Nicholls registered at Cardiff Glamorganshire vol 11a page 752 Sept 1/4 1904.

Hi crisane,
Many thanks for that entry. That confirms what I had originally thought was the correct
line to follow.
We're hoping we might be able to get a birth/bapt. date without purchasing his cert. if at all possible
at this stage.
The marriage you have found is a possible. But as his marriage cert. says Henry John Teagle there's
just a chance there may be another marriage somewhere - not on FreeBMD. I do admit though, it looks as they could be the parents.
I wonder if a census lookup for 1901 & 11 might prove beneficial in locating his father.

I wouldn't get too hung up about the order of first and second names John Henry/Henry John. Harry/Henry also interchangeable.
I'll see what I can see in the censuses.

Hi Crisane,
Many thanks.
I've just looked on FamilySearch and came up with a family. Someone has already done some searching but its only "submitted" entry.
2. George Teagle - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Marriage: 1872 London, London, England
I'm getting my friend to buy Edward's birth cert. Saves a lot of guess work at this stage.

Hi crisane,
As promised , we have now received his birth cert. which confirms Edward John Teagle's birth as 3-1-1917 s/o John Harry Teagle and Dorothy (Nee Nicholls). The father was a Colliery Engineman (above ground) and they lived at 21, Commercial St, Bedlinog, Glam.
When Edward married in London in 1942 his father is listed as Henry John Teagle, Electrician, Deceased and
we have found a reference to a John Harry Teagle - death in 1939 aged 54 Mertyr T. Dist. The two seem to tie up nicely.
So are they one and the same person? I know you said earlier not to be too concerned with the names as
they are interchangeable.
So now its on to find the marriage of John Harry Teagle to Dorothy Nicholls which was in the Mar 1/4 of 1904 in the Cardiff Dist. but where?
