nudging this for others interested Julie

The witness's are a G Lee and a M Carey

Who were the witnesses on the marriage cert.? Any clues there? Gwyn

Hi I found C Herbert Hewetson ( first name Charles ) in 1901 Census living in Lambeth. He was an Actor, thought on James marriage cerificate it couldn't read ' contract actor ' could it???? Val

hiya LOL julie, no worries chick, at least if u order from GRO it only has to come from southport, not london have fun!!! Julie

That's really kind of you, I will have to wait the 10 days as I now live in Scotland!! That's why this is causing me so many problems!

hiya julie i honestly do think this is the best way forward, i think certs from GRO are taking about 10days now, i dont know if you would be better getting it from local office where he died, i know they are usually quicker, just depends if you can wait 10 days LOL i'll be glad to help when you have all details Julie

:))))))) thank you

I'll be interested to know how you get on Julie with cert. Good luck Marie

I think thats what i'll do..............Thank you all for your time and help. I will order his death cert asap and give an update when I get it. That could be in a months time..Just spoke to my Grandad and he said he remembers James at a funeral playing the piano singing she'll be coming round the mountain when she comes!!!! He said he wasn't sure if it was for his sister-in-law or for his Sister!!! .........This family gets stranger by the minute

View Record Charles Hewetson abt 1859 Bermondsey, London, England Head Southwark St George the Martyr London View Record Charles Hewetson abt 1893 Bermondsey, London, England Son Southwark St George the Martyr London from 1901

hiya i have searched the complete index from 1899-1908 inclusive, and found nothing that matches, except for the jack of course, i tried hewitsons, hewenson, hewetson, in all manner of ways. I think the best way now to tackle this, is to buy his death cert, at ;least then it will give a DOB, which will be something to go on, that way we can go from there, and see what we come up with, i will have a look for charles on 1901 cen, and see what i can come up with Julie

Hi Julie thanks for that............this has been driving me crazy!!! No doubt had you all are going cross eyed :) thank you for your time and hard work, as to siblings I have no idea, I know very little about him as he died before I was born and I have to assume my Nan found it difficult talking about her Dad.So I'm starting from scratch!

me again, did your gt grandad have any brothers/sisters that were spoke of?? this may help Julie

hiya, i found something, it may be a brother, the only way to be certain is to buy cert with charles as ref check as father, Birth june quarter 1907 HEWITSON JACK dist- Lambeth Vol-1d page-491 it may help Julie

Yes he died in 1966 in Lewisham aged 62,Vol 5D Page 275 just not written the quarter down on my notes. Here it is..............Oct,Nov,Dec

Julie Do you know when he died?? Marie

hiya, marie, have already checked that upto 1906, NOTHING is there, i am now on 1907, and going thro that, i have checked from 1899-1906, the only possible is that he was registered late, or in his mothers maiden name, but i dont think the latter applies, Julie

I know James was a Railway carman

Thanks Val, I was so hoping it was a brother, it would have really helped! I have now put baby to bed, so I can now type with both hands and hopefully keep up!
