Hi
I am researching for a friend the above.
We have found quite a lot about him but we are struggling with a couple of things.
His age keeps varying on his marriage certificate Frederick Skipp to Sarah Duckett he is b 1857, in various census returns he is b 1852, then in 1921 b 1846.The 1891 & 1901 he is born in Ireland, the 1911 Lydney, Gloucestershire. So any proof of his birth either here or in Ireland would be good.
According to his marriage certificate his father is William Skipp, an Architect.
Any information about possible parents.
He moved around quite a bit Gloucestershire, Northampton (marriage) Sheffield, Smethwick and Oldbury. From Hotel Porter to Licenced Victualler.
Yesterday I found a Cheltenham birth for a son to Alfred Frederick Skipp in 1892, I believe this to be him as the address corresponds to one we have for him.
Regards
Brian
