[whenthesunhits]

Hi All,

My first post and would like to find some information on a deceased relative as per above.

George was born in Ashington, Northumberland UK. George served in the Coldstream guards as a Sargeant Major. His approximate year of death was 1988 and lived in the Mill Hill area of London with his with wife Thelma (Mother's name was Ivy).

George was cremated and I think he may have plot at Hampstead cemetery which I am also trying to confirm as I would love to visit to pay my respects.

George also had family in the Sunderland area , I think a sister or close relative called Majorie.

If anyone comes up with anything, I would be eternally grateful.

Thanks in advance for any replies I may get.

Hi,
Welcome to Rootschat
This is only a possible, we need some idea of when George was born...
London Electoral Rolls 1953
30 Rannoch Road, Hammersmith and Fulham.
George Allison
Thelma J Allison
Edward C Sorrell
Ivy E Sorrell

That would make a marriage in 1948  https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl
It may not be who you are looking for of course.

Do any of the names ring a bell?

You re welcome
There is a probate record as follows

Allison George of 57 Bittacy Hill, Mill Hill, London NW7, died 14 April 1988...
Can t find an obvious birth for George at the moment, if you think the marriage between George and Thelma Sorrell may be correct then the marriage certificate would give fathers names.
Thelma J appears to have been born 1930 so quite young when she married.
Hope this is the correct family, we could be barking up the wrong tree!

Cathy you are 100% correct on family. Again, within two posts I am bowled over.

Thelma was indeed married to George. And Thelma was called Sorrell before marrying George.

I wish I could find out other family members and where George's resting place is after he was cremated.

This is an amazing start though Cathy and thanks so much again.
