Any information - GEOFFREY JOHN FALKINER born SUDBURY 1921-1927
« on: Tuesday 11 December 18 09:33 GMT (UK) »
My friend is desperate to locate any information on her father Geoffrey John FALKINER born 1921-1927.  Parents listed as John Henry FALKINER deceased (Stockbroker) and Edith Catherine LONGDEN. After years of researching we are not so sure this was his real name. Western Australian Marriage Certificate 1957 lists birthplace Sudbury, England.

FreeBMD.org.uk is not showing any Falkiner/Faulkner/Falconer births in Sudbury Registration District in the period 1920-1930?

I have looked everywhere.  I can't even find the parents listed.

As he may still be living, information on him cannot be provided, as per Rootschat policy.

Until we know for sure that he is still alive, I'm happy to see what can be found before the topic is removed.

That’s odd, shouldn’t it be until he is confirmed deceased, we should avoid providing information? Given he left his family, he may not want to be found and his information provided on a very public forum.

Is he not entitled to his privacy?

As he doesn't appear on the England & Wales birth index, could he have been adopted?

There is a separate index for those entries which is not publicly available.

(although it is strange that his 'parents' can't be found either)

Hi     


There are other threads running on this subject.     


There is more than 1x Sudbury in England      ( Suffolk & Middx )


1958 Western Australia, at the same address, he is with a "Mavis" ( not Mabel )

There's also a Sudbury in Derbyshire; and Sedbury in Gloucestershire was formerly known as Sudbury.

And not forgetting Sudbury in Ontario?
