freebmd.rootsweb.com
- search for Albert M Baldwin
Albert Morri[as]h Baldwin b. 1877, m. 1898 Kate Goodyear.

Gerald M. Baldwin b. 1916 (Gerald Morrish Baldwin, died 2002 in Clwyd)
Myrtle G. Baldwin b. 1920
(both with mother's maiden name Goodyear)
others, possibly:
Rose W, b. 1911
Reginald, b. 1906

www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/documentsonline shows that Albert Morrish Baldwin was in the Navy - you can download info on his service from here.

His parents appear to have been (from census + freebmd) William Baldwin and Caroline Morrish.  William was also a navy man.

It can be very hard to go forward (unless you're lucky and a cousin is also looking), but you could try to locate relatives of Gerald Morrish Baldwin since his death has been indexed (and hopefully they have not moved far in the past six years or so...)

Hi,
My grandfather was Gerald Morrish Baldwin and his brothers and sister are those you have named!! He unfortunately passed away in 2002 but has left behind a daughter, 3 granddaughters and 5 great grandchildren. His sister Bobby's daughter Geraldine (named after my grandad has written a book about her childhood). Who was your father? Do you remember my mum Jacqueline at all? She was born in 1949
