Trying to find information of my father-in-law to help my children. He was married in 1933 marriage cert says he was 34,married in StPhilips Kensington and his father was a coachman named William Henry Coombs,deceased. I can't find a birth cert that ties up. He died in 1976,my husband registered the death but we never knew anything of his family. Would be grateful of any help.Thanks |

Julie and Wayne,thanks for your quick response, Alice Blagg was definately his wife(she was my husbands mother) I have been following up the William Henry from Bray but can't find him with a son called William. Thanks for your help. Pat |

the issue you have is he may have been 'from' Bray but originated from somewhere else. I would also suggest he may have lied on his marriage cert... this happened alot.... he may have made himself appear older or younger depending on his wifes age. Ladies did this more than men. Unfortunately you can only register a death with the data you have, which can be wrong. I have several members of my tree who changed ages everytime they married and also were either alot older or younger than they actually were on their death certs. |
