Yma pub den genys frank hag equal yn dynyta hag yn gwyryow. Ymons y enduys gans reson ha keskans hag y tal dhedhans omdhon an eyl orth y gela yn sperys a vredereth.

Just in case.

All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

World War Two / Any help at all please for RAF Pilot
« on: Saturday 25 June 05 19:14 BST (UK)  »
Just found out my husbands Great Aunt was married to a pilot in WW2.  I searched  CWGC and up he comes, where he is burried but no other details any help would be greatly appreciated.  Aircraft, how he died accident etc. 

His full details:  78300 Flying Officer Wilfred Earnest Cater RAFVR Died 21 6 41.  aged 41. (which seems quite old to me to train), had  he already served and qualified before with the regular RAF?

United States of America / Help needed to get to the bottom of a family scandal?
« on: Monday 20 June 05 22:43 BST (UK)  »
My Grandad, Frederick Cardell Pengilly, arrived from the UK on Ellis Island in 1911 off of the "Philadelphia" and worked for several years in Bingham Utah with other members of the family (Carkeek). 

In 1917 he joined the Canadian Railway Troops and served in France until 1919.  Here's the SCANDAL he met a girl (who became my Grandmother), Phillippa Mary Blanche Cole, probably whilst on leave from WW1 at the family home in Cornwall.  He, post leave obviously returned to canada for demob and then on to Miami, Arizona.  Grandmother then turns up, 6 month pregnant on Ellis Island in November 1919 off of the "Adriatic"

I believe he probably met her and married in New York, but did he?  Or did he marry her in Arizona? Cannot find any evidence of marriage any help appreciated

Hello,
I wonder if anyone can help me?  I have reached a dead end trying to search for my Grandfather.  His full name is: Frederick Cardell Pengilly born 10 July 1892 in Calstock, Cornwall, England.  Ellis Island Papers indicate he arrived in the US aboard the Philadelphia on the 26 August 1911.  I can track him as far as the 1930 Arizona State Census, but then he disappears, ideally I would like to find where he went, where and when he died, possibly with certification.  I'm new to rootschat, could the administrator please tell me if my post is on the correct forum?
Any help would be appreciated, Many Thanks, Judy.
