William Alexander McBroom

[Bryant]

I'm seeking information on William Alexander McBroom born 24th October 1917, where was he born? was it Ireland?

William married Evelyn Louise Burnard in 1940 Kensington R.D, London, they had a son named Alexander M N McBroom in 1945 Hammersmith R.D he died in 1967 aged 22 within the Southwark R.D. Evelyn died in 2004 Hounslow R.D, London

William & Evelyn must have divorced as he marries Rosina Hannen (born 1926) in 1975 Harrow, Rosina dies in 1979 Watford R.D and William dies in 1989 Spilsby, Lincolnshire.

Their is a William A McBroom who dies in the Sep qtr 1937, Kensington R.D, London (aged 65, approx birth 1872) who might well be his father......Mary E McBroom who died in 1934 (aged 57) Kensington R.D might well be the mother. Did William A McBroom marry Mary E ? in Ireland?

Thanks
Bryant

William Alexander McBroom is my husband's g/father, and we live in Victoria, Australia.  We have seen two old photos of the McBroom family, recently posted on this site, which we don't have in our album.  How can we get enlarged and better quality copies of these photos?  We have lots of photos and family information.  Code name: "Asper".
