Many thanks Ethel. I'd like to know what became of Leonard too, if he married etc. Last heard of in 1972 when he was mentioned in my aunt's will.

Hi Beverley.
Leonard Arthur born. 1916. April/June Qtr. reg in Wellingborough.vol 3b 236
Mother. Willey.

Marriage of Evan Gladstone Burdett to Rose O Willey.1914. April/June Qtr. reg in Kettering. vol 3b 483.

Birth of Evan and some of his siblings.

Evan G 1881. July/Sept. Qtr. reg in Kettering. vol 3b 188??not sure of last No.
Oliver Arthur. 1885. July/Sept. Qtr. reg in Kettering. vol 3b 159
Frank. 1887. April/June Qtr. reg in Kettering. vol 3b 177
Nellie Gertrude 1896. Jan/March Qtr. reg in Kettering. vol 3b 185
Walter William. 1898 July.Sept. Qtr. reg in Kettering. vol 3b 191.

Need checking but think these are OK.

1891 census
22 Grange Road Kettering.
Arthur A 29. Shoe Rivetter
Mary R 29
Evan G. 9
Kate E 7
Oliver A 5
Frank. 4.

1901. 203 Havelock St. Kettering.
Arthur A 39. Boot Laster. Born Rothwell.
Mary R. 39. Born Rothwell
Evan G. 19. Boot Heel Builder.Born Rothwell
Kate E. 17. Boot Machinist.Born ??Besboro??
Oliver A 15. Boot Heel Builder.Born Kettering
Frank. 13. Boot Maker. Born Kettering
Joy. 8.
Nellie 5
Walter A 3. all born Kettering.

With a copy of one of the birth certificates it should confirm details of parents, and copy of the Marriage certificate you will get their ages, their Father's names and occupations and witnesses who may be siblings. You can then search further back on the census recors. Hope this is of help. Ethel.
