Mr T Aiken - Help with research please...
« on: Sunday 20 April 14 16:29 BST (UK) »
I'm seeking information on Mr T (Tom?) Aiken or his family. All I know is that he retired to the UK having been chairman of Malayan Breweries Limited (MBL) 1928-1954. There is more information at . His last known address? His next of kin?

I'm unsure how to use FreeBMD with only the above info?

Thank you

Edit: Link fixed.

He made several trips back & forth  starting in 1926 where is address was 21 East Claremont St. Edinburgh.
Same address in 1835.
1946 gives address as 21 Liberton Brae Edinburgh same in 1952 & 54.
On all birth date is 1903 so looks like Ray's Thomas.
Edit:
Maybe not, there's a Thomas Aiken b.1902 Scotland.
Edit:
In 1935 he's travelling with an Elizabeth Aiken. b.1905. later listed as Elizabeth Black Aiken.
The Thomas b. 1902 Scotland has birth registered St. Machar Aberdeen. In 1911 he's appears to be in Fife.

There's a marriage for a Thomas Aiken 1930 Canongate Edinburgh = Elizabeth Hamilton.
Was hoping it was going to be Elizabeth Black.
The England Thomas married Edith Gravell 1928.
Edit:
East Claremont St. is about a mile from Canongate.
Now looks like the Scottish Thomas.
