i know all that what i would like to know is did william george gregory die in infancy or di he live to an old age cos if he died in infancy then it's possble that my grandfather could of been his younger brother

You'll have to search the death records for that Sylvia, can't see him with a quick look

that's not much help i was rather hoping that william george may of died at an early age cos then that might explain why there was to william's in the same family, but i guess it's back to the drawing board again thanks any way

It's quite possible that 2 siblings shared variations of the same name ie George William and William George, I looked up to 1922 and couldn't see him, doesn't mean he didn't die tho, you'd have to do a page by page search to see, Good Luck

well my grandfather was called william andrew and his father is listed on his marrige cert as george, but i cant seem to find william andrew on the 1911 cenus, so without anything else to go on i am now totally stuck

Sylvia

according to william andrew's marriage cert his father was a gardener, now i clocked george gregory (market)gadener in 1901 and he was living with his parents, and in 1911 he has a wife and child but not my grandfather, now i have shaken lots of trees but nothing it's like he doesn't exist, but i have photos, so i've been wondering if possibly he was registered under his middle name then christened wiliam andrew later. i also cant find wiliam andrew in the 1911 cenus, so i was wondering if he was born after the cenus was done

When did William Andrew marry and how old was he?

william andrew gregory was married to jeanie o brien moultrie in jan 1940 at brentford registry office he was 29 and she was 24 he was in the army.

How have you got back to the family in Melksham if you don't have a birth cert for Willaim Andrew?

There are quite a few William A Gregory's born 1910-1911 which would fit in with his age on marriage cert.

Do you know when he died?
