Trying to find Eldridge

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

I am trying to trace my father's family. His name was Harold Francis Eldridge. He was born in December 1921 and lived in East Ham, London E6. He served in the RAF during WW2 as an armourer with 609 squadron. After the war he became a postman at Forest Gate, London E7, where he worked for forty years. He married my mother Lilian Joyce Barwick in September 1950. Harold ('Harry') had two brothers, Leslie and Ron and a sister Vera. Ron was killed during WW2, Leslie died in the 1990's and my dad died in 2004. I have no information at all about his own family and I would be grateful to anyone who could throw some light on this for me. Many thanks Marilyn
