So he was down as deceased in July 1913, Edith Marriage, but not in December 1913 for Elizabeths...(perhaps that info. wasn't given, or known!)

Chris :)

catherine you are right about sister being named as georges next of kin and it states father is deceased on the roll of honour 1918.and as he is also down as deceased on the marriage cert 1913,he was alive 1909 when son came out of the home/school then they were all back in them 1911, 1909- 1913 seems the safe time limit .

you are right chris,sorry,i just checked the certs ,and its on daughter ediths marriage cert. iv got go to work so il pick nup again later

No mention of 'Deceased' on 1913, Elizabeth Sivier, just Bricklayer.

may have changed his name I had one left wife and children and was found using his mother's maiden name and living with another woman could never find his death using his birth name

hi, iv looked thro my stuff, roberts wife died 21/4/1908. son charles went into the school 23/11/1908,it was a foster care home/school.he was taken out again 15/5/1909,and by 1911 charles and brother george were back into foster care together,lucy,minnie and frank were all in diffrent forster homes.so robert eitherdid die between 1911 and 1913 or went off as he obviously couldnt look adfter bthe children and work,but he isnt mentioned anywhere after 1911.

ok,firstly,i have had a look thro my folder and iv no idea who susan sivier is,i havent found her,she is not a sibling or married to one of ediths brothers,am thinking a cousin maybe ,that i havent found yet.
and it looks like this robert silver isnt my robert sivier? god,i wish id started all this when grandad was alive,lol.

oh gosh,thankyou,iv only just got in to find you have been realy busy on my behalf, i realy appreciate it thankyou.il read thro all yr findings,and get back,

Well i appreciate everyone helping me.il order it tomo and post on here if its right one or not. Thankyou all. X

Just by ploughing through all the death records of Roberts born 1862+/- 2 years and died 1910+/- 5 years. Doesn't take long.

Andy

thankyou,this realy looks promising, where did you find this?

Barton under Irwell is Lancashire

Andy

thankyou andy, il have a look see where abouts it is,it might fit in with other members of the family or something, and as its the right age,i think il just go for the certificate,iv got nothing to lose,lol,

Looking at this death. Way out of area, but right age. I can't see a birth or census records for him.

Deaths Sep 1909 (>99%)

SILVER Robert 46 Barton I. 8c 316

Andy

Military records of George give Florence Brightwell (sister) as next of kin, so it does seem that Robert had passed away, or was certainly not around in the country.
