A Mansell

[ShaunJ]

I do have the Parish register for their marriage.

So you will know that he was an engineer at that time. I can't see a navy record for him.

I have just put my other computer on and yes I got the DOB from the death. On his marriage it says soldier. Can you just wait a minute while I type you a message.

The reason I put the post card on here to find out if this is Arthur is because I have a family photo with the same person on and someone had named that person as Richard born 1880 his brother who died on the railway in 1902 and Arthur being younger as the one sat next to him. Which all was going well until I got this post card. Alan

This is suppose to be Arthur. Before I got the post card and that all made sense. The thing is there isn't another A Mansell that it could be.

If you have found Arthur and Lily in 1939. I spent a long time looking for that and couldn't find it on FindMyPast. is there something wrong with the spelling.
