Trying to discover why my 3xgrt grandmother's illegitimate son born in London was sent up to Glasgow as a child; according to the old family tale that his father's family (unknown) took him away from his mother. William John Levett married Charlotte Sharp and eventually came back to London to live.

World War One / Trentham, Staffs WW1 Memorial
« on: Wednesday 09 July 14 14:16 BST (UK) »
I am one of a group of ladies researching the 17 names of soldiers from the Trentham area who were killed in WW1.
We are keen to hear from descendants of these men to help with our search.
My two soldiers are George William Paget and Leonard Johnson.
I have gained some information from Ancestry.co.uk and CWGC but any other advice or help gratefully received.
Many thanks.

London and Middlesex / Kensington burial 1941
« on: Thursday 09 May 13 20:15 BST (UK) »
I am searching for the burial location of a relative (a young child) who died in Feb 1941 at The Grove Hospital, Tooting and whose family were staying at the Royal Palace Hotel, Kensington as evacuees from Gibraltar. I have contacted Gunnersbury, Hanwell, Wandsworth and St Mary's RC without success. I think Brompton is next on my list!
Just tried Brompton cemetery without success. Any ideas very welcome!
