Suzy - what a gem you are! Copies of Baron's marriage and death certificates were given to me by his daughter Audrey with whom I am in contact.However, they are at home and I'm at work! Working from memory: Baron married Violet Surridge in Puckeridge, Hertfordshire in about 1944. He was in his early 40's by then and she was in her 20's. Baron died in 1959 from some sort of lung problem/pnumonia, not suprising since he worked as a River Cleaner! His death certificate states that he also had Motor Nurone Disease. This is of particular interest to me because there is a genetic movement disorder in my family called 'Dystonia'. From talking to Audrey about his symptoms they do sound dystonic. I didn't even realise Motor Nurone Disease was known about back then! Sorry - rattled on a bit more than intended there! Lyndsey

Hi again Lindsey Very interesting. I thought Motor Neurone Disease was a modern discovery too. That sort of thing makes it even more important to find out about our ancestors. I wonder what his paternal Grandparents died of? I will keep my fingers crossed for the death record of Ada. Suzy

These are the marriage records of Baron Senior's siblings. I don't know how much your relative wants to find out; but their children may still be alive and could have information. Riddle Ada Elizabeth Chesterton 3b 1053 Marriage Q3 1899 Riddle Albert Edward Kettering 3b 372 Marriage Q2 1902 Riddle Arthur William Kettering 3b 416 Marriage Q4 1901 Suzy

Alas Suzy, we'll never know who knew exactly what, and when! Re. Ada's death, I wouldn't be suprised if she'd lied about her age at some point. Audrey will be so pleased when I pass on to her all the information you've gathered about the Riddle's. She was always kept very much in the dark about her Freeman ancestors and it was only six weeks ago when we first made contact (not through this site) that I was able to tell her what her Grandmother's name was! So thanks from both of us!
