Now, there is a problem, a MAJOR problem

unless you know when YOUR Albert Victor Lawrence was born, and where he was born


That's because there are several Albert Victor Lawrence/Lawrance


Albert Victor LawrAnce married Gertrude Mary Irene Tickell .................... seaman gunner;
born 8 Feb 1894 - Hertfordshire, England;
died 15 Sep 1969 - Perth, Western Australia
Parents (from trees on ancestry) Randall Joseph Lawrance and Emma Louisa Holton


OR

Albert Victor Lawrence
Born 1894 - London, England
Died 15 Apr 1918 - France
Parents (from trees on ancestry) James Lawrence and Elizabeth Ellen Davie


OR

Albert Victor Lawrence
born Abt 1898 - Kent, England
parents (from trees on ancestry) Frederick Lawrence and Ellen


OR

Albert Victor Lawrence
Birth: Sep 1899 - Northamptonshire, England
Parents (from trees on ancestry) Joseph Lawrence and Naomi Robinson


OR

Albert Victor Lawrence
Birth: Abt 1887 - London, England
Parents (from trees on ancestry) Charles Lawrence and Helen Elizabeth Nunn


OR

Albert Victor Lawrence
Birth: 1901
Death: 10 Nov 1944 - Sea
Parents (from trees on ancestry) James Henry Lawrence and Edith Rose Cox





The Albert Victor LawrAnce who married Gertrude was a AB seaman gunner, and as such was possibly the same A V L who got the medal ........ although that medal was awarded in 1930-1935, and Gertrude and V emigrated to Australia 1926/27




You have some sorting out to do!!!

A Public Family Tree on ancestry has much information


I suggest that you take out a 14 day free trial on ancestry and examine that tree, and maybe make contact with the owner.


According to the tree Gertrude died in 1984 in Perth, WA

Albert Victor Lawrance
Birth 8 Feb 1894 in Welwyn, Hertfordshire, England
Death 15 sep 1969 in Perth Western Australia


4 children, at least, born in the UK, the last in 1926

First child to be born in Australia was in 1927 ...... so it looks as though the family emigrated between 1926 and 1927


This tree has many photos and notes.
