The problem is, still no John Walter birth.
He could have been registered just as John, or as Walter John
Births Dec 1903
Brown Walter John Camberwell 1d 892

Welcome to genesreunited, Chrissie.

If Carol is not answering her emails, then she may have changed her email address and not notified genes, unfortunately.

Is there any help that you would like, or do we just hope that Carol gets in touch?

Just for confirmation of what has been found via Scotlandspeople, etc, as the GRO now shows mmn, this is the birth of John Brown:

BROWN, WALTER JOHN EMERY
GRO Reference: 1903 D Quarter in CAMBERWELL Volume 01D Page 892

Hello Patchem, I am new to this too. My grandfather was Alfred Samuel Brown - older brother of Walter John. I don't know how I can contact Carol if she isn't keeping her genes reunited email address up to date. Thanks for offering to help though.

Do you have any ideas of how we might locate Carol by other means? It's tricky I suspect.

I just wanted to share details of the family tree with her as we've some interesting things out about Estelle Matilda, their mother.

thanks, Chrissie
