I am just wondering if this is Dorothy's death in Stockport? it would then explain the marriage to Hilda being 1932?

OK found military record thankyou.

They had son George Eric Sydney Lawrence 23/4/1911 in Manchester can't find that record,this is one family determined not to make it easy.
If they were born in Scotland I wonder why 1911 says he was born Islington and Dora born in Bury Lancs as was son Lionel/Henry Lionel.

The 3 boys prove illusive in later life also.

It's in the miltary records you found Gins, correspondence trying to get confirmation of the marriage, but a lot of it has faded so can't make out if they found a registration for marriage or not?

Gee

Gee Report 10 Aug 2013 19:34

We crossed posts, Rose

Rambling Report 10 Aug 2013 19:26

I can't make out if the marriage was confirmed or not? some of the pages are not clear but seems he was demobbed on compasionate grounds 1919.

Gee Report 10 Aug 2013 19:26

Nice one Rose. Where did you get that info from?

I guess it all links with the 'posters' mother being brought up in Scotland

Maybe?

oh dear

" Dear Sir, your letter of the 19 inst, as I told you before we didn't get a certificate my husband said it was legal or I would not have registered my boys as Lawrence nor lived with him for 13 years, Your letter has really upset me and if my allowance is stopped God only knows how I am to keep my children...." she signs herself Dora Lawrence.

I can see the one you're looking at Gins, that looks hopefull as it has 'music Hall ?artiste ' for occupation. Well spotted!

edited... on next page 'Musical artiste'

Gee Report 10 Aug 2013 18:01

There is a WW1 record for this guy and a Dorothy McMahon (looked earlier today)

Says Henry J was born Glasgow 1885c, married in 1905, in Glasgow


Edit:

Sorry, forgot to say this is the birth for one of the children, the others were born in Lancashire


Births Jun 1908
Lawrence Henry Lionel Lambeth 1d 272

The others were born in Lancashire, can't remember their name now :-S

Edited again!
