Researching Bertram Ford

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Nicholas Report 27 Jun 2017 20:14

Hi. I`m trying to help a friend find information on a man called Bertram Ford who was a lodger at 7 Elthorne Avenue, Ealing ,West London. He is said to have died in the 1950`s and i have found a record on Freebmd of a Bertam Ford who died in 1957,Ealing, aged 62 which means he was born roughly in 1895. There is a record of a Bertram born in Milton, Kent in 1895. Unfortunately i don`t have access to census records or electoral rolls. Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks
Nick
