My wife's Father
« on: Tuesday 29 March 11 20:30 BST (UK) »
We are looking to trace my wife's Father - George Thomson Badham (at the time of his marriage) to Louisa Frances Binney in December 1912. We suspect he was born George Smith Badham in May 1891 - his Mother being Nellie Badham. (Father's name not given)
We have also found details of the marriage of George Thomas Smith to Helena Badham in the 1st qtr of 1892.
Address's for either in the years 1891 to 1915 would be interesting. Details of any siblings to George?
If you can help, thankyou.

You should look in the 1901 census. The 1891 census was taken on the night of 4th April, so he would have just missed it. You would find his mother, however.

Thanks for the information.
I will look at all the suggestions. Is Nellie a nickname for Helena ?
I have certs for the marriage and the birth of George Thomson (and Smith) Badham.
Thanks again.

There is this family in 1901, but unfortunately it looks as if ink has been spilt over the original and much of the page is unreadable, including ages.

Nellie is usually a pet name for Ellen.
Ellen can of course be Helen or Helena  ;D
