Dear Elizabeth
thanks for the reply by the appropriate section due you mean the regiment all i have is the Royal Berkshire Regiment and his army number if not could you let me know who you wrote to
regards myrtle

thanks paula for reply, yes I have his marriage certificate to my mother that is where i got the army number as they married in 1939 I have found when and where he was born and know he had brothers i got all this from the 1911 census. there are 2 children from this marriage my brother and myself, but I want to find out what happened to him after i was born my parents were divorced when i was about 4 due to his mental state after dunkirk and my late, mother never spoke of him i believe he may have still be alive when we migrated in 1959

Taken from your other 2 posts on your Father from a year or so ago..

anyone know my father frank davies. married constance worland 1905 and later divorced. he was badly wounded at Dunkirk ww11 i believe his fathers name was william henry retired gardener and his mothers name may have been annie. he may have had 4 brothers and maybe a sister. any infomation would be appreciated regards myrtle

Did you ever get your parents marriage cert for info?

Name: Frank Davies
Spouse Surname: Worland<<Constance A.
Date of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep 1939
Registration district: Lewisham
Registration county (inferred): Kent
Volume Number: 1d
Page Number: 4000

Or try for his birth cert to get his exact date of birth to be able to search deaths for him?

Births Jun 1905
Davies Frank Alan Lewisham 1d 1199

Or the one in Greenwich that I posted earlier which I feel would be the correct one if the 1911 census below is him with his parents as you say his father was a Gardener and it is in Greenwich reg district.

I had to send a copy of the death cert to get my Father out of Laws WW2 records for my "darling".

Also for my Grandfathers..

It is to be able to prove kinship..

As Paula W says Myrtle he should be on 1911 so if you give what you do know we may be able to trace him,hard with the name Davies,but not impossible.

I note that you have him on your tree as born 1905 Greenwich.

But can only find this ref,would this be him?

Births Sep 1904
DAVIES Frank Greenwich 1d 1112

Did he and your mother marry. Perhaps if you send for the his marriage cert will give more details to search back. If he was born in 1905 then he should appear on the 1911 census. You did not specify any area in England

I have applied for my late fathers army records and I don't remember sending a death cert in. But I may be wrong.

i have been trying to find out about my father who was injured during ww11 i contacted army records in the u.k but they wont give me the info i require without a death certificate, he was born 1905 and i never new him as we migrated to australia 1959 and i have no idea when he died and no relatives to help. has anyone any ideas i have his army mumber but not much else
grateful for any help myrtle
