William Stannett
« on: Monday 21 May 18 04:18 BST (UK) »
Hi, I'm looking for information on William Stannett born 1909 in Windsor. His mother was Edith Hannah Wilcox born 1868 and his father was Henry Stannett born 1873. He had seven siblings and he was the youngest. I know he lived in Eton Wick and was blinded by a firework as a child. He became a piano tuner and apparently moved away from Eton Wick. I would like to find out who he got married to, possibly in 1940's and when he died. I believe he had no children. Thanks.

Can't help with a marriage or death, but just to add that he was registered Ernest William STANNETT Sept qtr 1908 Windsor (2c/454)

Modified to add:
There is a William Ernest STANNETT death at Islington in 1973, date of birth 14 August 1908.
