Warwickshire / burial site
« on: Wednesday 17 February 21 14:31 GMT (UK)  »
How do I go about finding where my moms' brother is buried? His name is Keith Raymond Rhodes and all that we know about him is he was born and died in the first half of 1945 in Solihull, apparently, it was a taboo subject when my mom was a child so she knows nothing of his grave. Can anyone help please  ???

Talking to my mom the other day and she says that on his marriage certificate he is down as Bernard Leo Joseph Rhodes can anyone tell me where Joseph has come from?

Thanks in advance

« on: Thursday 12 November 15 21:21 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to find my great grandmothers date of birth without much success. The only info i have is that she was born around 1861, married Edgar Samuel William Rhodes in Aston on the 1st Jan 1887, had 6 children and died 2nd Jan 1920 in Warwick aged 59. Her Father was George who had died before she married and her mother was Maria E. She was born in London according to the census's, but even then i can't find her on the ones prior to her marriage i.e. 1871 & 1881 and unfortunately that is all i know. Any help greatly appreciated. ???

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / White Atkins marriage
« on: Saturday 03 October 15 10:03 BST (UK)  »
Hi all, I appear to have hit a dead end trying to find when Alfred White and Martha Atkins were wed. According to the 1911 census Alfred & Martha were living with their 2 children Mattie & Winifred in Kentish Town and it states they had been married for 4 years putting their wedding year about 1907. Just to confuse me even more on the 1911 census he has signed it as Thomas Alfred White but on his daughters birth cert  and his later sons wedding cert he is Alfred White. I have checked all permutations and i am still drawing a blank. Any ideas please. ???

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Albert James White
« on: Tuesday 22 September 15 10:16 BST (UK)  »
Hi all, I am having difficulty in tracing the birth of the above. I believe he was born on 27/12/1912 and was (according to him) within the sound of the bow bells, but i cant find anything on him. The 1911 census shows his family living in Kentish Town. His mom was Martha and his father was either Alfred Thomas White - sons marriage certificate or Thomas Alfred white - 1911 census. Apologies if this is obvious but having been searching for it for a while now I have gone index blind.
Thanks
Al
