Trying to find Frost

Susan Report 30 May 2007 15:05

Hi. My name is Susan (nee Frost). I am trying to find my Grandfathers family. His name was Brice Frost and was born 1900 in Tottenham (I think). He had a brother Ted and a sister Louise. He had a sister in law Ruth who had a son John and they lived in Canvey Island. John must be in his late fifties or early sixties as the last time I saw him was at my Grandmother funeral in 1970. My Grandfather also had a foster brother who was left on his mothers doorstep as a baby. My Great Grandmother brought him up and he worked under cover for the goverment in the second world war. My Grandfather's profession was an Armetuer rewinder. He moved to Dorset when he married my Grandmother Florence Evelyn (nee Welch). They had a son Brice Walter Frost in 1922. Please can anyone help? I have just remembered that my Grandfather Brice ran away from home at a young age (early teens I think), to enlist in the first world war, he lied about his age. His father bought him out but he ran away a second time and ended up with shell shock in a Bristol hospital. I think there is a relation to the family who lives in Bridgwater. I have spoken to him.
