George William Archibald Nixon - Help Find Him
« on: Saturday 05 August 17 13:05 BST (UK) »
I am looking for a friend on his family tree and we have come across a man who seems to be a phantom. All I can find is that 'George William Archibald Nixon' was born in 1908, married twice (once in 1930 and once in 1947).
My friend is led to believe that he was in the RAF during the second world war, but I cannot find any record of this.
Ultimately, this is to find out who his parents were to continue looking back, but any info on hm other than what we know might be interesting too.

Thanks

We are not allowed to give details from the 1911 census, but if you can find him on that, it will give you his parents' names and from that you should be able to find their marriage.
