Lawson
« on: Tuesday 05 December 06 11:50 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find birth, marriage and death details of Len Lawson.  He may be Leonard and it may be his middle name. He was born in Loftus abt 1920, he passed away in Leicester abt 1963-1965. His brothers were Albert Edgar Lawson b 1910 Loftus and William Harold b 1913 Loftus. Their parents were Tom and Alice (nee Wren). Tom was born in Staithes and Alice at Scaling Mill.

   Len married a lady called Iris from Saltburn and they had two sons Peter and Geoffrey who I think may have been born in Leicester.

   Up to now the free BMD has not revealed anything.

  Can any one help.

Hi Lucyblue,

Welcome to RootsChat.  :D

FreeBMD has hardly any coverage post 1910ish.

The complete (or nearly) BMDs are currently free to view here:

(Choose Complete BMD Index ranges & Images 1837-1983)
