Help with Friend's Great-Grandparents
« on: Monday 10 July 23 23:23 BST (UK) »
George Albert Marshall Jr. was born around 1880 in East Dean, Gloucestershire, England.
He immigrated sometime around the 1900s to Illinois, US.
He married Ada Olive Powler (who was born around 1884 in Westbury on Severn, Gloucestershire, England) in 1905 in Fulton County, Illinois, US.

Any information on his parents and ancestors would help.

His birth is on freebmd.  Have you checked GRO online for his mmn?

Use freebmd to find parents marriage

Look for him on the 1881 census to determine their birthyears & birthplace etc etc

I find it odd that you are offering to help with "brick walls" but don't appear to have done any basic research on this post

With some basic searches, you will find his parents also in Illinois, and in the England census.


Yes, I agree with CaroleW
