Bertie Howe married Winifred Coton Solihull 1916
« on: Sunday 30 June 13 19:00 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I'm looking for any information on Bertie Peter Howe, b 1879 in Suffolk & married Winifred Coton in 1916. They then lived in Lugtrout Lane Solihull. Bertie was my great grandmother's brother & I can find very little info on him after he moved to Solihull when he was medically discharged from the army.
Can any one help please?

Hi,

Marriage registration gives his name as Peter B Howe; could this death registration be him?

Many thanks for all your replies. All very interesting. I'm just confused that I believed Winifred was born in 1896 so think she wouldn't have been 62 in 1939. Any ideas? Also can't find Bertie in 1911 census but may not have been in Warks then. Anybody seen any children, or ideas of what Bertie did when he left the army?
Regards

Hi,

Have you searched for Bertie as Peter; the name used on both his marriage, death and probate documents?

On the latest census there's this Winifred Coton, age 15 :

Also :

The latter aged 34 years and living at Lode Lane Solihull.

The one I believe to be the Winifred Howe who died in 1939 - is living with her parents and brother Ernest, in 1891 :

Winfred (Coron) RG12/2461, Folio 50, Page 11

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/WG83-YT2

The actual image does state the surname as 'Coton'.
