I have been unable to trace anything but his name has been removed from the list of unclaimed estates so someone has claimed it. Sorry I can't help

No problem.  I'd rather meet a relative than money any day.

You're a good person to put so much effort into it.

Me too a friend and I tried hard for a few weeks used our resources such as ancestry etc., I try and get family bibles from second hand shops and trace owners as well. I would like to have my families old records and I hope that others would to. If anything pops up I will let you know.

If anyone wants information about Geoffrey Charles Burt I am happy to help. I knew him for over 30 years.

HI as you can see from the thread I was seeking the man from the Bona Vacantia list, he left an unv=claimed estate but he is no longer on the list si=o i assume someone was traced.

JTF

Geoff's father Fredrick I think is the brother of my grandfather.  Did Geoff ever mention any aunts (Florence, Louise, Jessie, Sophia, and one other whose name I forget) or an uncle (Thomas, Arthur and one other I can't remember name of)?

I would love to find members of my mother's family.

Thanks so much,

Unless he had an inheritance that he was unaware of, his estate would only be low hundreds of pounds, accrued while he was in hospital, so no great fortune I'm afraid. He never bothered to make a will because he had so little to leave.
I will contact other members of my family to see if they know anything about his family. I do know that he had brothers called Don and Jerry (Gerry) and a sister who possibly had some sort of mental illness at least in later life. Don married a Gladys but had no children as far as I'm aware. He died quite a few years before Geoff. Jerry had children I believe and there was some connection to the railways in the north of England. Will post more when I get more details. Hope the above helps.
