Hello
I haven't posted on Rootschat for years. I am trying to find something out about the SARCHET family of St Peter's Port. Without access to BMD's it is incredibly difficult. The chap I am interested in is Ronald John Sarchet born on the 9th January 1919 in St Peter's Port Guernsey. I would love to find his parents.
Regards
Maryphil

Did he marry Margaret Symes.
Newspaper report for their wedding. Coventry Evening Telegraph 03 April 1945
Elder son of Mrs Sarchet of 20 Sapphire Gate and Mr H W Sarchet of Guernsey

There is this 1911 entry on FS which may be "Mr H W Sarchet" but he would have only been around 19 when Ronald was born

Baptism for Harold William Sarchet b 24.2.1900. Father Harold James & mother Ellen Lily Le Breton
Buying a copy of the 1945 marriage cert will confirm his fathers name

Did he remarry in 1958?

Did he remarry in 1958?
Yes he did, there was a lady called Lizzie trying to find out about him in 2017, I tried to pm her but no reply yet
-
His second wife - also Margaret - died in 1983
Possibility there were 5 children born to that marriage 1951 - 1959. Dates suggest Ronald & Margaret were living together before they married

Your pm will not have been received by her as any RC member has to make at least 3 posts before you can use the pm system

Thank-you so much I have been a member for several years and used to write posts but it's been sometime since I did it.
As I say I think we may have a cousin for her. It is not my family I am just trying to help this lady, who is stuck
