OK - new to all this I am afraid. However I have found the Ernest George seems to have gone to France - soemeone else found some info Ancestry and he has a WW1 medal card but no service record so perhaps he went to France an died there hence no death here!!!!!!!!!!

I see you have started another thread about these people.

Really best to keep all info on same thread to save research being duplicated.

I do know that Emily Vivyan eventually had another son Harry Reynolds so whether she remarried or not I do not know. I thought she was a widow but that seems dubious now.

Leigh asked for information, saying please - since then people have offered information and possible leads and it has been discussed intelligently. As in verbal discussions sometimes reactions are a bit abrupt. Some of us come on here just because we don't know the search sites available - I had never heard of Free BMD when I first got stuck!

Thanks, lots of differing information to search through

And just very dismissive ongoing...and no acknowledgement for what people have found so far

You must know that....people give info, sometimes based on 'family hearsay'

We know as 'seasoned ‘amateur researchers that what you hear......

................is almost, always........NOT the truth!

So it would appear that the birth Shirley found earlier ( Ref : 5b 317) will be your Ernest George born 1878.

Leigh Report 19 Sep 2010 19:59

Well, if all this intrigue is correct then maybe he went back to being George Ernest instead of Ernest George - would there be a death for that name??

Vivyan George William - Stoke Damerel 5b 312

Mike * Report 19 Sep 2010 19:04

As it sems his father;s name was William ... I wonder if either of these is him, only to be altered at christening.


Births Mar 1878

VIVIAN William Ernest - Stoke D. 5b 324


EDIT - NOT THIS ONE - Found him in 1881 with mother Margaret.




-------------------------------------------------------------------
Births Dec 1878

VIVYAN William George - E. Stonehouse 5b 317

........and maybe this is his mother's marriage


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marriages Jun 1877

Newless Mary Jane - E. Stonehouse 5b 538
VIVYAN George William - E. Stonehouse 5b 538


and 2nd marriage under both names...
hence the double entry for Ernest's wedding.


Marriages Jun 1883

MADDOCK Andrew - Stoke Damerel 5b 519
NEWLESS Mary Jane - Stoke D. 5b 519
Vivyan Mary Jane - Stoke D 5b 519
