Alfred R Evans - Husband of Elizabeth Bisbey
« on: Friday 06 November 20 19:04 GMT (UK) »
I am currently looking into my Mom's side of my family.

My great grandfather is called Alfred Richard Evans, he was married to Elizabeth Bisbey.

My Nan never knew when her Dad was born, where he was from etc, because he wasn't exactly a model father.

She's now passed away, and we still have got no further with finding out who he is.  There's a few Alfred Richard Evans around the same time so i'm not sure which one is right.

I guess my question is, does anyone know a way I could confirm the right one?

Thanks!

It may be on records as Bisley.

My Nan was Elizabeth Evans - born 1939, Wolverhampton.
Her Mom was Elizabeth Bisbey - born 31st March 1897 - Wolverhampton

Elizabeth Bisbey was married to Alfred Evans, in October 1932.

Hope this helps.

do you have a copy of that 1932 marriage certificate? If not, it would be worth buying as it should give age of Alfred and his father's name & occupation.

Have you found Elizabeth on the 1939 register?

Do you know when Alfred died?

Elizabeths birth was registered June qtr 1896 so she was b 31.3.1896 not 1897.  Did she die in 1970?
