william leech, born 1886, heigham norwich, he married had children then his wife died

Quote
they had no more children together


You say that William & his first wife "had children" so what were their names and birthyears? 

Have you checked the marriage shown above and then used that info to check for any births?
im just checking it now x

Pauline j has posted the marriage reg 1910
William Charles Leech married Violet Lillian Allen

I cannot find a death reg for Violet Lillian
I have what I think is her with parents in 1891 - but no sister Jessie

Coul you please post the y.o.b. of Alfred (the child Jessie had with William Charles?

Could you also confirm that "your" William had the middle name of Charles??

You will get more help if you answer the question(s)

What children of William leech do you know of? (names. years, places)

I think you may be barking up the wrong 1911 census record there anyway.
Looks to me like Mrs Leech died Norwich 1959.
its all very difficult because i have very little information, i have found one child mother violet allen but it cant be her as she didnt die , and the sister has to die before 1921

Hi

Can I suggest you work from info that you know  (ie) birth cert of the child you are descended from.  Use the info recorded on it to see if there is a marriage and then work backwards from that info.

(eg)  What documentary evidence do you have that William was b Norwich 1886?

How do you know he married and had children if you don't know the names of any of the children?

Unfortunately - none of the info you have given makes enough sense for us to use it as a base to work from.

We are already on the second page of this post and are no further advanced

Violet Lilian Allen who married in 1910 to William Charles Leech in Kent was an only child.  Both her parents died shortly after the 1891 census and in 1901 she is living with relatives

It seems Jessie Page married Charles E Leech

So does your friend have the wrong name - should he be Charles Edward Leech we are looking for -and not William??
