Find Ancestors

Tried earlier with that cemetary but must be called something else on Ancestry

Can I join in with a scream ...........................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Val

I have all the original wills......

He is named in them in 1906 along with other grandchildren of F.H.Ayres (Sports Manufacturers)

6 codicils later in 1919 he is not mentioned so he must be dead!!! all the other grandchildren are on the will ............................less his aunts & uncles that have died in between

http://www.ww1cemeteries.com/ww1frenchextension/quatrevents.htm

Just having a look at this to see if I can narrow the name of cemetary down on Ancestry

Glitter Baby

This is the FIRST time I have found something you cannot find..........................

I am feeling smug now...........................

If it is Stanley traveling to and back from US in 1919 then he'd not be on the CWCG or 1914-1918 War Dead.. ?

Hello Val Yes he did they had
the Family business F.H. Ayres Sports equipment & the best rocking horses made in the world.............

If you google it

I am trying to do his tree for him because he is a life long friend and is 70yrs and obviously a bit worried...............

He my friend & an ancestor has no more money then the rest of us!

I have a lot of respect for how his ancestors built up the family trade before they sold out to Slazengers...............

Hello Jill

Christine in Portugal came up with that info earlier on but did not give me a birth address

He was born Charterhouse Square, Middlesex, London, England

Perhaps there were more codicils to the will

Thank god it is readable
The will I have is 11 pages long.............

T in Middlesex

Sorry I did not answer you I had to go outside & scream..................

It does look like they have found my Stanley on the record as he did have an uncle Clarence Montague Ayres from Nuneaton...............
