Find Ancestors

I am helping a colleague research Alfred Victor Castle who died in the war in 1916.
I found a Albert Victor Castle of the 2nd Battalion ( Royal Fusiliers )died 16th August 1916 at Flanders but was unable to find a Alfred Victor Castle.
I have been told he could possibly be the Uncle of my Cecilia Eveline Castle born 1889 at Cardiff died 1st April 1930 in Western Australia,she married Austin George Godfrey Snashall in 1950 at Perth.
Her parents were Henry Castle abt 1864 Bowerchalke Wiltshire & Annie Elizabeth Webb born 1864 Cardiff died 1st April 1933 in Perth Western Australia,.
They married in 1882 in Aston Warwickshire. I have no other children for Albert Edward Marshall & Cecilia Eveline Castle or Henry Castle & Annie Elizabeth Webb to check if there is a connection
Any suggestions of where I can go from here?

how could she have died in 1930 but married in 1950 ??

Parents at Sixteen.
PRECOCIOUS CARDIFF COUPLE. The, love affairs of a pretty girl and an industrious apprentice came before the stipendiary (Mr. T. W. Lewis) at Cardiff Police-court this afternoon. The children had attained the age of sixteen. They were Cecilia Castle and Albert- Edward Marshall, who is acquiring the art and mystery of a French polisher. Master Marshall earns as much…

Sorry Shirley got my Cecilia's mixed up here she was born 1889, married Albert Edward Marshall in 1911 in Perth died 28 February 1930
Their daughter Cecilia Evelyn born 1924 married Austin George Godfrey Snashall in 1950 she died 8th November 2000.
What I really am after is the parents of Albert or Alfred Victor Castle who died in 1916 to see if he connects with my Castles
Thank You

well done Choccy thats the mum of cecilia too

That's a very interesting story Chris Ho I just found a son born Albert Edward M ((could this stand for Marshall) Castle 1906 at Cardiff possibly their baby?

Ellen -

As Shirley has shown, Albert Victor was the brother of Cecilia 1889.
But their mother's surname was Cridland, not Webb.

This will be their parents' marriage:

Marriages Dec 1887 (>99%)
Castle Harry Cardiff 11a 519
CRIDLAND Annie Cardiff 11a 519

Are you sure you've got the right Annie?


A Cardiff marriage seems much more likely than the Warwickshire one you mentioned. Quite apart from the fact of the mms quoted on GRO!

I can't see an Annie Cridland in Wales in 1881, although there are a couple of Cridland families in Cardiff.

However, there were a number of Annie Cridlands in various places in 1881, so she could have been anywhere then.

You might need to buy their marriage cert, to see her age and father's name, to help identify her.

All with mother's maiden name of CRIDLAND

Yes I think you are correct Annie Elizabeth Cridland, I originally had that from someone else then thought it was Webb I have corrected my tree again.
Thanks everyone, once again you have solved my queries,it is the best site for obtain help

Ellen

How sure are you of Annie's year of birth?

The only Annie Cridland born 1863-5 was born in Kensington:

Births Jun 1864 (>99%)
CRIDLAND Annie Kensington 1a 98

But it's not her - that one's still unmarried in 1901:
