Frederick Oswald Farrell

Doing some research for my grandson's school homework and we want to find out about the grandfather he never knew. All I have is Frederick Oswald Farrell believed to have been born around 1930 in Nottingham.
Thanks

Thanks for the reply, I had seen this particular entry but dismissed it as he died in 1995 ( I think)
I actually met Frederick, (he was known as Ricky) several times up to his death in 2010. My son in law has very vague recollections about his family.

It's probably a good idea to purchase his marriage certificate, as that will give you his father's name?

I can see a few potential marriages!

Sept qtr 1951, Hammersmith
Marina F Mauger to Frederick O Farrell/Oswald Smith

Sept qtr 1956, Hammersmith
Daphne A Brinton to Frederick O Farrell

March qtr 1964, Wirral
Frederick O Farrell to Joan A Evans

The one I am after is FO Farrell marriage to Joan A Evans.
For my grandson the tree does not need to be too detailed, I will get hold of the cert.
Many thanks.

Once you know his father's name, there is a good chance of finding a marriage for Frederick's parents.

In Family History, probably the worst period to research is the last 100 years!
We are reliant on Birth, Marriage & Death Registers and, where available, Electoral Rolls (Voter's Lists).

Good hunting!

Researching my mother's family and and came across your post.
The Frederick Oswald Farrell you were researching was my father, who I grew up with.
If you still want to learn more about him let me know.
