Thomas Wogan Morris
« on: Wednesday 31 October 18 03:59 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for a Thomas Wogan Morris born ca: 1910 (perhaps a little earlier) who may or may not fit into my Morris and Wogan family trees. Last known address for him ca. 1923 was Myrtle Cottage, Hundleton. His parents may have been George Harris Morris and Sarah Jane Wogan. Many thanks in advance.

This looks like the family in 1911  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X7J5-18V

And this looks like his birth on the GRO Birth Index

Yes that's him and thank you so much! Apparently Thomas died in 1923 "Death by accident." How would I go about finding out how he died? I don't have a month only the year. Any help very much appreciated.

That's definitely a start for sure and thank you so much. Are there any online newspapers perhaps? I'm bloomin' useless with U.K. genealogy. I'd love to find out how he died.

Pity but thanks so much for your help Kay which is very much appreciated. Thank you. Would Myrtle cottage still exisit today? I've been all over a Hundleton pic site but didn't see it. Mind you not all the cottages are named. I'm also trying to find a road map.

I will have a look for Myrtle cottage - trying to work out where it would be today

Re maps - have you used the National Library of Scotland maps -which cover the UK    This is a link to one of their 1906 maps covering Hundleton  https://maps.nls.uk/view/102188985#zoom=3&lat=3573&lon=6180&layers=BT

In 1911 Myrtle Cottage is in the hamlet of Chapel Hill to the south of Hundleton however the houses don't have names on the map https://maps.nls.uk/view/135200128#zoom=3&lat=6536&lon=9450&layers=BT
