Member Since: March 2006 Posts: 199 Send Message	Thanks everyone... Right i have just read everyones Threads and will take all on board... I have info i have recieved today on John is On the new 1911 census it is showing as Thomas Malcolm and Ada Living at Raverley Street, Bromley with my Grandad (Thomas Henry) aged 5... But no mention of any sibling dead or alive... Now after this info i contacted my oldest Auntie on the Jarvis's and she has Told me that John married a Esther and they had a daughter called Pamela... Now my John apparently never stayed with wife and daughter... But they do know that around about 1975 my dad and family had to go to a solictors in Portsmouth as this John had died and my aunt seems to think he lived in Cawplain, Portsmouth, Hampshire Can anyone now have any ideas etc... Many thanks in advance to those who have replied with ideas and thanks to those who might have fresh ideas... Tracey
