Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help me out here. My GGF Charles William Squires was born in West Derby in July 1875. In 1896 he married Florence Leighton in West Derby and in 1903 he married again to Frances Maud Williams in Liverpool.
At some point in 1903 he moved to Abertillery where my GF Herbert Stanley Squires was born in 1903 and in 1911 census he is shown living in Barry. But, while I am curious as to why he moved south (he wasn't in industry, but there are other Squires in the Abertillery area) I want to know what happened to him after 1911 as I am unable to find a death registered.
Also, family lore says that he had been a soldier and that his Florence Maud's family were not impressed by the union, but I can find nothing to back that up. By 1903-1911 he was a painter and decorator.
Any assistance much appreciated as he is causing me to pull out what little remains of my hair!
