Edwards
« on: Saturday 22 August 15 17:20 BST (UK) »
Looking for Edwards family. Grandfather George married Florence Brame, whose roots were both in Tonypandy, Wales, I think.  They moved to Stratford East London.  Their children were Albert Victor, Frederick, Alfred James, Nora.  Albert Victor had 5 children Removed He then went on to have children with Removed.  There is also another daughter who left a message on his grave but the rain washed her contact details away.  He was murdered on 25 December 1965 by Removed his common law wife.

Hi and welcome to Rootschat  ;D

RootsChat is meant for finding ancestors, rather than living relatives.

Personal details of any people known or thought to be living will be removed, in accordance with RootsChat policy, to avoid spamming and other abuses. So people here will be able to give you general tips and hints how to proceed, but not any concrete details.

You will also find more tips here:

Good luck!

Are you trying to reconnect with the children?

The woman accused of his murder pleaded not guilty, but was found guilty of manslaughter and put on probation for 3 years.

I have removed her name as she may still be alive, although a google search of his name will find details of the event.

I looked at www.freebmd.org.uk as the woman you mention was previously married so the children are found with a different mothers maiden name on the birth index.

One daughter with an unusual combination of names and intitals married in 1994.

I would suggest putting some contact details (like an email address) and leaving them in a plastic bag under a weight at the grave. Perhaps some family will come back and check?
