	I have got ancestry and I was looking for a John Staunton on the WW1 records which I have found now I can see he lived at 34 Barbot Street Edmonton and can see that he was born in Ireland but I can't see any next of kin or anything else that might give ne a clue to how old he was I know he had a daughter in 1920 and the address is the same so know it is the right person. perhaps I am not reading it right so if some else has got the time and ancestry could they please take a look at it thanking you so much Margaret Finch

	Yes Sophie that is John's daughter but the marrige certificate I ordered for John Staunton they sent me ine for a George A.Crowley and a Beatrice M.M. Creassey same ref no: they just sent the wrong one. If you look on free BMD they all come up together and they looked at the wrong Beatrice. Margaret
