Family History Beginners Board / Re: Help with Ancestry.com tree please

Well "I married off" my sister to her cousin and it was fine. You hit spouse and go to select person in your tree and put the name in and then hit the correct person make sure you save it and on the person's page it should show parents and spouse. :)

Edit - I am describing the records page as having all the information if you are referring to the actual tree it duplicates them so the husband and wife are together in his family's tree and in the wife's family she is there with her husband.

On her page she should have her parents and her husband's name.

I will go to Ancestry and "marry off" a couple of cousins and see what happens

When you add a spouse a box comes up and on the top left it says "select someone in your tree" and you follow that so she will be connected to her parents but also with her husband. :)

You'll soon get used to using Ancestry. ;D

I know the Queen is old but she was only 11 in 1937 so it would have been her father who would have given him his knighthood had he lived. lol  ;D

Why do you want his number? If it's to get his docs from MOD you can get them without his number.
His date of birth will be OK.

If he married whilst in the RAF his number should be on his marriage certificate. :)

It looks like what the RAF call detachments. You still belong to your normal camp but for a short time you will be elsewhere and then return to your normal camp.

The shirt popular 1870s to the end of Victoria's reign.

I have a picture of my father about 10 putting it mid to late 1920s with the same boots. Boots like that may have been around for many years. The clothing may help you more.

The boy on the right about 2 yrs older than boy on the left as he's quite a bit taller - feet on the floor as the youngest boy has dangling legs. Girl 2-3 yrs old. Boy on right up to 7 yrs.

I will say girl 3, boy left 5 and boy right 7. :)

EDIT
Just had a look at fashion for young girls and the shape of bottom of the dress seems to be in fashion between 1915 and 1920. There is also a note about sock length. Knee highs were 1915 getting shorter to ankle socks by 1920. Taking that all together about 1918/19.
