A mistake on this transcription. Groom is actually William James Latford. He's a scalesman, 20 Lee St., his father a warder. Her address 69 Rowsell St., her father an army pensioner. Witnesses Nicholas Peaford and Catherine Stevens. He is 26, she 29.

hi dea
thanks for your reply

yes he had medals but unfortunatly i do not have them brother in law has them in london and i am in scotland i know i could contact him but he is not well so might be a bit tricky

thanks again gill x

Gillian - do you actually have those medals?

It would be worth taking a look at them to see what details there are around the rim regarding his service number and the regiment he was in.

The person we are following here does not appear to have actually served in the army for very long on either occasion because of his epilepsy.

hi
i have just put the last name for the father so are now able to put brothers/sister on latford line
thanks

hi
i need his parents before i can add his siblings so any help with the info as you more uptodate on finding this info then me?

regards gill <3

hi
thanks for reply and i have record of marriage just assume he did marry mary peaford
gill

Okay just checked the Pension record and it does give her name as Peaford


No idea how you are going to find an answer to your question about "the other woman"

Curious

Did he marry Mary Ann Peaford in 1906 ?

But the Pension records on Ancestry give his wife a Maud Mary Ann ?

hi
just a query my sister in law says her grandmother went to see william james latford in hospital and the nurse asked who she was and she said his wife but the nursse said his wife was already here

any ideas to see if he was carrying on with somebody else i do not think it will show anything on census? i might have asked before so apologises if i have?

regards gill
p s can i also find out what hospital he was in i do have medical records from the army? but does not show name of hospital :-)

thanks everybody for your replies will look at paperwork and hopefully will get good info

thanks again
