Hi,

Thanks for that, after some digging we found that he is actually burried in New Milton !

My friend is going to visit his grave on Monday and she also wants to see the houses, what numbers are they ? - just makes it alittle easier for her to find.

Thanks for your help,

Regards,
Emma

Ive just searched on the War Graves commision website and found him on there -  I should of looked before but didn't realise that they had civilian deaths on there as well.

Thanks,

Emma.

Hi,

Thanks very much for your help,

If you dont mind me asking - where did that info come from ?

My fried is planning to visit his grave, is it best to phone the cemetery or council to find out which plot he is in ? also I mentioned to her to visit the local library to have a look at the Newspapers, would there be anywhere else she cold get further info ?

Thanks again.

Emma.

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could help ?!? ;D

Do you know what churches are around New Milton ?
I’m looking for a friend’s family member who was killed in 1943 by a bomb that hit their house.
Sadly it was a child who died, his mother was also hurt and was in hospital for quite a while. His father wasn't around at the time either - he was a Royal engineer,  and we think that they were divorced at the time.

We are really unsure of where he could be buried, the details we have(luckily from a death certificate)  -

Reg district New Forest
Sub District Lymington
County of Southampton
Brian Eric Holloway  age 6
Died 22nd Jan 1943
Where died - Mae Villa, Vincent Rd, Milton (New Milton ?) Hampshire
He was 6 years old.
Father - William A Holloway Sergeant No 1864034 Royal Engineers.
Cause of Death - Due to War Operations
Signature, descipton of informant -
F.J Beeching, Town Clerk, Lymington Town Council.
Registered on the 28th Jan 1943
Entry 242 in the registry

As you can see from the above it was registered by a Town Clerk, so we are a bit stuck as to where he could be and they is nobody in the family who knows.

If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

Kind regards,
Emma.

Laois (Queens) / Re: Guilfoyle Walsh Marriage ??
« on: Thursday 11 June 09 21:06 BST (UK)  »
yeah, thats what i was thinking - the trouble is it's a needle in a haystack really as I have been tracing my family in Athy Co Kildare and was told the marriage I was looking for was not in Athy !!

I have no idea where else it could be but like I said - went the really really long way round and that was the only match I could find on the web ! so if thats not the one I think I my sit in the corner scream for a little while, then cry, scream some more, give up for a while and start again !! - nightmare !!

thanks for your reply

Regards,

Emma.

Laois (Queens) / Guilfoyle Walsh Marriage ??
« on: Thursday 11 June 09 20:40 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

Just wondering if anyone can help ??

Im looking for a marriage record for a Hanna Guilfoyle and Martin Walsh -

I went around the long way and found a Hanna Guilfoyle married in Mountmellick Jul-Sep 1927 also separately found a Martin Walsh Married in Mountmellick Jul-Sep 1927 but I can't find a website that matches them together.
I got the info of the family search website which gives the volume and page number as the same - (volume 3, page 269) presumably that means this is the right record ?!?

Any ideas ???

Thanks for your time,

Kind regards,

Emma.
