 There were so many cousins I never knew them all.

Yeah, big, big families!

Well his last name is English, so it could be any of Fred's brothers or sisters. I'll ask him, but I don't know if he'll reply.

Another long-lost cousin Steve who I came across on Facebook said that his great-grandad was Michael and that he used to keep pigs in the back yard at Latchmere Grove. Gaz x

Pure serendipity! My great-grandfather was your great-grandfather. Unfortunately, I can't remember whether my grandfather was his son James, or Michael, though Michael is more likely. However, he also lived in Latchmere Grove (can't remember the number), wife Elizabeth, and had 10 children, one of whom died in infancy. My father, Frederick Cook, their eldest child, was born in 1912. Two others of my grandfather's children also lived in Latchmere Grove, his daughter, Elizabeth (married name James; husband, George James; three children, all girls), and his son, James (wife, Gladys; 13 children).

Hello my long-lost cousin, what is your name? Can I put you on my family tree?
Also, do you know if your grandad served in the RAF during the war?

Hi, no, haven't managed to get hold of any birth certificates yet, I had that all planned out for the week after Christmas but unfortunately I was in hospital and haven't managed to sort that out yet.
I know next to nothing about my great-grandad James so he may well have been married twice. In fact I know next to nothing about my grandfather Charlie who died 11 years before I was born. Thanks for the replies though, it's very encouraging to find out these little nuggets of information.

Looking for any info on my great grandad, James Cook, born 1852 or 1853 in Pimlico, living at 35 Latchmere Grove, Battersea, on the 1901 census with wife Sarah and eight kids James, Arthur, Charlotte, Michael, Florence, Jane, Amelia and Charles (my grandad).
I wonder if anyone else on here is researching this family, can't find any reference to it.
