The Common Room / Help finding a singer on the radio
« on: Sunday 07 February 10 12:53 GMT (UK) »
I'm searching for information on a Joseph AYRE who, according to family legend, was a singer on the radio.
He would have been born around 1880 and I know he lived in Horley, Surrey at some point in his life but I have no idea which radio station he may have worked for.
He and Eva Hinde MANCHESTER (nee SHARMAN) ran off together, had 2 children (b 1920 & 1922, registered in Reigate) and later married in Tynemouth, Northumberland (in 1933) once Eva's 1st husband died.
AYRE seems a common name in Northumberland so it's possible this is where he was from originally.
Does anyone have any ideas for where I could find any records relating to radio broadcasts that may help?
Thanks in anticipation.
