Yes it is. We know who his parents are...well thought we did. His mother had an affair with someone else and we are now not sure if her husband was the father. The man she had an affair with was called Frederick and she had a few kids with him.

Hi, thanks for the reply,
No I haven't checked with them. Will look into that. He was born Herbert Henry Capell, but in the death announcement in paper he was Herbert Henry (Fred) Capell. There is a bit of doubt about who his father was and was hoping a headstone would help, or the burial record may have details of who organised the burial.

Thanks, Susan

Yes that is possible as two of their children were married in Catholic churches in Scotland
Does anyone know if its possible to look catholic marriages for Knockbride?

Hi,

Was wondering if someone had access to the parish registers for Sculcoates/Hull area.

I have the birth certificate for Clement Arthur HIRONS and his parents are down as Frederick HIRONS ( Drapers van man)  and Annie YATES.

They had 4 children between 1919 and 1925..the first 3 in Sculcoates district, the 4th in Hull.

I have searched the marriage indexes for any marriage that looks like a possibility ( all of England and Wales and Scotland) and have come to a blank.

I have found possible deaths for Frederick (1929) and Annie (1973) in Yorkshire.

If someone has access to the records it would be great if you could check for the years abt 1915-1919 in Sculcoates and Hull areas as wondering if it is one of those odd marriages that has been missed off the indexes for some reason.

Thanks very much,

Susan
