Second marriage, maybe..she would have been in her sixties. Don't really want to send off for a certificate to see if she was a widower though. As interesting as it is, it's an expensive hobby!
Thank you.

Chris, the shop was his. I have rate book info etc. He disappeared when his youngest was a baby. My grandfather helped care for the little ones. Apparently he went out to deliver milk and never returned.

I was told his wife went to her mother-in-laws to plead to see him but was rebuffed.

Thanks, Chris. This is not my Albert. I have the birth certificate. He was born Street but changed to Currell - don't know why.

I have Alfred's marriage to Eliza. No record of him and Emma (Jones) ever having married though.

The other thread was mine, too. That's when, with the help of this forum the name change was discovered.

'My' Albert's birthday was 15th august 1884. On his marriage certificate it states baker's assistant too... That's some coincidence...


What do the numbers 280 2 refer to on Lois Prout record?

Thank you

On the 1911 census he was a Baker's Assistant - could this be him in 1939. Age completely wrong, but date of birth the same!

Andrew, I meant to say my Grandad married Doris Blower. I didn't mean the one you found was my grandad. Sorry. That record can be eliminated.
Thanks, Angela

Angela Report 24 Oct 2016 11:51

I'll see if I can trace Albert and Catherine, although the liklihood is Albert the deserter didn't marry his new partner, although I won't rule out bigamy!
Thank you all.

Navvy is a labourer, I read it as a w not v v ... :-S

Navvy as in labourer. I think labourers on the roads and railways were often called navvies. Someone else's may be able to clarify that.

Thanks, Andrew. The 1909 birth is my grandad who married Doris Evelyn Blower.

I don't think this is 'my' Albert. He wasn't in the navy.
Thank you for your help
