Birth/baptism Look up Please - CUTLER
« on: Sunday 23 August 09 17:54 BST (UK) »
Hi,
can anyone help me with a birth/baptism look up please for Edwin Frederick Cutler.


Here's where it gets tricky 'cos we're not exactly sure when he was born - it's between 1896 and 1901 and in Leighton Buzzard. Heath & Reach.  His wife was born in India to an Irish railway engineer and the story goes that Edwin was 2/3 years younger than Honora, his wife.  Until yesterday we thought she was born in 1898.........we now know she was born in 1894.
I know this is a long shot but you never know.

Any help please.

It is not possible to lookup a baptism without knowing when and where somebody was born and also the church in which the baptism took place

There is no Edwin Cutler b Bedfordshire on the 1901 in that age range nor is there a birth on freebmd for an Edwin Frederick Cutler

Do you have a copy of his marriage cert which will show his age at that time plus his fathers name and occupation

The only Edwin Frederick Cutler showing on the 1911 free index was b 1885 and was living in Dorset

In 1911 there is an 11yr old Edwin Cutler living in Leighton Buzzard but he was not b Bedfordshire - he was b Buckinghamshire as was his father - also Edwin

Hi

It should be relatively simple to trace him if you get a copy of his marriage cert as it will give his age and his fathers name

Leighton Buzzard spans the boundaries of Bedford and Bucks

Hi carole,
Thanks for the info - I found the same details as you and have ordered a birth cert for Edwin to clarify.
Fingers crossed.
Cheers
