Yes Margee, thats Thomas, I hope to visit St Lukes later int the year.

Tracey.

Is this her son?

Name: OWEN
Initials: T P
Nationality: United Kingdom
Rank: Private
Regiment/Service: Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry
Age: 30
Date of Death: 28/02/1919
Service No: 200218
Additional information: Son of Arthur and Helen Owen, of 56, Park Rd., Hale, Altrincham, Cheshire, husband of Ethel Owen, of the Old School House, Swanbourne, Bletchley, Bucks. Enlisted in Aug., 1914.
Casualty Type: Commonwealth War Dead
Cemetery: NEWTON HARCOURT (ST. LUKE) CHURCHYARD

Her son is my great grandfather Thomas Pritchard Owen born west derby, lancs 1888, however what has become clear is that his mother was unmarried at the time of his birth, so have searched under thomas pritchard, he doesn't appear as Thomas Pritchard Owen until 1901, however I wonder where he was while she was off visiting on census day 1891?

Its just the case of fitting a further piece of the jigsaw to a man I never met, that fought in ww1, my grandmother only saw him once on his return from the war 3days later he was dead!

Weird, I know, thanx for your interest Jackie.

Hi Tracey,

What is her son's name?


Jackie

Hi Guys,

Thankyou for the information, hopefully it will give a lead as to where Ellen/Helen squirreled away her young son in 1891 whilst she was a visitor elsewhere and met the man she would later marry.

thanx again, Tracey.

Hi I'm hoping to find further information regarding Samuel Pritchard/Prichard census/marriage pre 1871 which was when he died, leaving his wife and a 2yr old daughter Ellen/Helen.

He was born in 1832 in Ford, Shropshire, died 1871 aged 39. He married 'Betsey' born 1842 Oxton, Cheshire. So far no luck.

Thanks in anticipation, Tracey
