Thanks Shirley - I see it !!

Marcus

I did some editing see the threads

Thanks PricklyHolly, that's the daughters births. Ties in with the 1911 census that Shirley found (Thanks Shirley!).

I didn't know he became a Mason! Where did you find that one? Where can I find more on this Masonic link??

So, Born Forbes, became Alexander on mother's re-marriage and he married as Alexander.

Shirley, I think the 1931 marriage of Mary looks promising.

Thanks,

Wonder if the I is a misprint

Any children born are more likely to have married before 1939


Not seeing Charles and or Elizabeth on the 1939 reg

I have it on FreeBMD -

Charles Grigson Forbes Vol 1B Page 328 Sept Quarter 1877 Islington

I have a death ref for 1945 but have yet to chase this up, so not 100% on the death.

Just trying to find him in 1939 with his wife & hopefully 2 daughters......

Thanks

(have you found his Birth on above?, Parents names?, or any other references for family, Marriages, Deaths etc.)

(Birthdates help with 1939, although not always accurate!)

Chris :)

Am looking for Charles Alexander (Born as Charles Forbes 1877 in London).

Mother remarried to David Alexander (Hence name change).

Married Elizabeth Broomfield 1903 in Gateshead and had 2 daughter - Mary 1905 & Doris 1909. Both born Gateshead area.

Would like to find them all in 1939.

I believe Charles may have died c1944/45? I don't know what happened to the rest of them.

Any help most welcome!

Thanks
