The Stannett Family
« on: Monday 06 June 16 06:53 BST (UK) »
Hi my name is Debbie. I am trying to find some info on my Grandad's brother's and sister's. My Grandad is George Henry Stannett born 1894 in Chalvey  and he was married to Emily Tapp - Burgess born 1885. George;s mother was Edith Hannah Wilcox born 1868 and his father Henry Stannett born 1874. My mother's  brother Donald Stannett is 86 and living in Slough and would really like to know what happened to his Uncles and Aunts. He is the only one left on my Mother's side. There were 7 Aunts and Uncles:-
Ada Florence born Eton Wick 1888,
Albert born Eton Wick 1896,
Ethel born Eton Wick 1898,
Sidney born Chertsey 1901,
Oliver born Chertsey 1903,
Louisa May born Windsor 1905 and
William born Windsor 1906.
My Uncle has memories of Oliver being a train driver and Sidney being a painter and decorator. He believes Sidney went to Australia when his children were teenagers but I cannot find any info on him.
Any info, stories or photo's of any of these Stannett's  would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to rootschat

Suggestion to try the Census of 1901 and 1911. It may give you occupations. Those born 1890's are likely to be employed in 1911.

Beware that the surname might be recorded with variations ie. one n or one t
