The marriage is in Maidstone registration district. Did he ever use his middle name of Alfred? Only William on 1881 that is any match on place of birth and occupation of soldier is a Smith Maureen |

hi, this has been an ongoing problem, for a long time now. where was WILLIAM POOLE in 1881? in 1884 he gets married ,& his occupation is soldier 50th regiment, kent. he marries CAROLINE WOOD, who has a son ADOLPHUS who is illegitimate b.1880. (adolphus later becomes POOLE). william is a right pain in the butt! after endless searching, i have come to the conclusion that he too was illegitimate, and to cut a long story short i believe he was born WILLIAM PUDNEY. FINDING HIM IN 1881 WOULD BE A MAJOR BREAKTHRU! also,how can i find out anything about his army records? if anyone has any ideas , or advice i would be really greatful! |
