Still looking for any information relating to FREDERICK JOHN BRIGHT. He was born c1889, probably in London.

He married FLORENCE ISABEL BRUNT in Pancras in 1912 and had five children Frederick, Florence, Charles, Doris and Elsie.

Fred Snr died c1940 from tuberculosis. We believe he had a cousin who owned/ran a department store under the name BRIGHT in London in the early 30s and may have had a brother William.

Hi Stephanie

No it's not, but thanks for looking. (Louise I will email you as I have a new contact)

Fred Snr came from the Pond Street Hampstead area (although sometime listed as St Pancras?).

His father was George Bright 1862 who married Eliza Hilton 1864 and also recorded in the St Pancras or Hampstead area. Family history suggests they MAY HAVE been tailors. Anyone know anything more?
