I don't have much time tonight,but have you found Kathlyn or her parents on the 1939 register? the 1939 register gives exact dates of birth which helps track births (and deaths).

Sometimes you have to come forward to work back.

Shirley, yes my dad does have the marriage certificate for his parents. He is definitely down as John Bertram Walker :)

AustinQ, I feel like a total plonker!! Totally forgot about my grandmother's brother (not hard to forget mind, I didn't know she had a brother until recently!) Yes, I'm sorry, there was another child!

Apologies if this is already posted- are you certian they only had one child?

I saw the marriage to mr Andrews bu couldn't see any other info

I was thinking if she married the cert should name her father and whether he was still alive at that time . But it's not a given that a father would be given deceased even if he was .

Maryb... I've had a closer look at the information you gave me, thank you very much for that.
It does look very promising, as ChristinaS says. I'll keep on researching and will let you all know if I get anywhere!

Thanks again :-)

I think the John Bertie Green posted by Maryb looks promising.

I would assume (only an assumption) that his father was a Walker. He's under the name Walker in 1901.

Shirley - My grandmother married twice. First marriage was to Francis A. Andrews in 1936 in Bromley and had a child called Christine. We don't know if they divorced or if he died in the war. Granny moved to South Africa without her daughter (Christine was alive up to 20 years ago, we don't know where she is now and I can't find any details about her either!) sometime in the 1940's. Granny then married my grandfather in SA or Rhodesia as it was then, in 1950 and had my dad a year later.
Unfortunately, as you can tell, it wasn't the done thing to find out more about her family. Dad is kicking himself that he didn't push for information :(

Maryb. I keep thinking this is him too. Perhaps he changed his name before he got married to May?! Who knows!!

This looks like the one on 1901 census as stepson to John Edwin Flood.

Catherine Jane Green had son John Bertie Green D qtr 1882 Edmonton V03a P308 mums name not shown.

Edmonton is Tottenham area.

Catherine Jane Green born 1861 to Elizabeth Rathbone born Windsor Berkshire and John William W Green born @ 1831 Plymouth Devon they married in Hackney 1860

Catherine Jane Green married J/A/S 1897 in Edmonton 3a 781 to John Edwin Flood.
Catherine J Flood died 1908 in Tendring Essex

1911, Sycamore Lodge John Street Brightlingsea Essex
John Edwin Flood widow private teacher born Taunton @1844 he died 1/9/1928 probate to Anna Louisa Flood spinster £134

I can't figure out how or why he was Bertie J Walker in 1901 census!!

Maryb.

Not seeing them on the 1939 register or a possible marriage for kathlyn

Is she your grandmother? If so when did she marry and do you have that cert for its info

safc, I'll get on to my dad about obtaining the marriage certificate, thanks :)

Sylvia in Canada. It was a typo. Sorry. I already have that information.

He was born about 1883 (NOT 1885) according to the 1911 Census!!

sara

you need the marriage cert

for his fathers name
and occupation
and address

Thanks Maddie, they're the ones I came up with as well. It does look like Bertie Walker of Tottenham is the most likely.

Safc, I don't have the marriage certificate, I'm going on the details I found on this website...
