That is the father, but the son did not attend Marlborough for some reason. His father died before he was born, and he was given exactly the same name. Mother obviously remarried to a Spread.

Family History Beginners Board / Major Thomas Gilliat Meautys
« on: Tuesday 19 November 19 05:53 GMT (UK)  »
Any help please would be greatly appreciated. I am researching the old boys from The New Beacon School, in Sevenoaks, who died in WWI and WWII (T G Meautys died shortly after but is on the roll of honour board).
Thomas Gilliat Meautys attended The New Beacon along with his two half brothers (R B Spread and G P Spread), who later attended Wellington. They too were killed.
I would love to know what school he went on to. He was an acting Major, sometimes listed as Captain.
I think he went to a different senior school to his half brothers but cannot find him... hopefully you may have some suggestions or would be able to help. I thought I had discovered him at St. Alban's but this T G Meautys was listed for 1937, which would not fit with his DoB.
His details are:
b. 29/04/1915
d. 21/09/1947 Italy
14th/20th Kings Hussars
Mother was a Nell Hotblack.
Father died in WWI before he was born.
He had two half brothers, surname Spread, who attended Wellington.

Keith, I sent an email the other day... did you receive it? It's an email address I had on record from a while back.
Also, I am awaiting to hear back from someone who has records for Diedesheim and Neckerelz, but this is a possible lead... but further away (about 10km outside of Mosbach) Most of the names tally.

It goes in that order JGLeutz (Godfrey), father JV Leutz, grandfather JP Leutz, GGrandfather P Leutz and Leonhardt GG Grandfather. Peter and Leonhardt it seems came from Diedesheim (Neckerelz) which is all of 2 miles from Mosbach.

Keith, from memory his son Valentine took on the barrel making duties whilst he had the pub. It seems, almost certain, that Godfrey was born Johannes (like his father) Gottfried Leutz and chose to go by Godfrey Lloyds. There are quite a few Johannes in the family then a middle... like some do today, I assume some go by middle names to avoid confusion day to day. The document at the archive which listed a family tree also had the unknown detail of Johannes Gottfried Leutz, as in he was born in Mosbach and then doesn't die there (like most of the rest)... but no one quite knew where he did! I look out some of the docs for your records.

The Karlsruhe archive was really handy and I've managed to go a few generations back.
Johannes Gottfried Leutz - Johannes Valentinus Leutz b.1722 d. 1799 - Johannes Peter Leutz b. 1691 d. 1766 - Peter Leutz b. ? D. 1731 -  Leonhardt Leutz b. ? d. ? It seems they were from Diedesheim for Peter and Leonhardt an old suburb of Mosbach... previously called Neckerelz. Peter was a Barrel maker.

Thank you for the info. It seems Karlsruhe archive will be better. There are no micro films at Mosbach and I had one film that I would like to check.
