Yeah Im going to look into ordering it tomorrow.
Thanks for finding the info for me =]

Im quite curious to see who the informant was to be honest...

Its worth getting it as it was only 3 years ago the informant may well still be at the same address

ah thanks for pointing that out...will correct the dates =]

How about widen the search to look for Desmond's aunties & uncles families?

I think I've worked out who his dad was

That I know of, Vera and Herbert had no children...or they did and I just cannot see them on the BMD indexes

There is a possible child for Edgar, and he was called Peter C Clifton..born in 1949 in Edmonton.

So did Vera or Edgar have any children?

Kind Regards

Jane

Yes they are some of them:

Eva - 1914-1914
Edgar Bernard - 1919 - 1994
Frederick Walter Edward - 1917-2003
Vera Florence B - 1916-1980
he also had another sister -

Muriel E D - 1927.

I have NO idea what happened to her..so if anyone wants to see if they can find anything it would be appriciated =]

Vera married a Herbert Tappin 1945 and Edgar married a Gladys Threader in 1943.

But my grandad had a few brothers and sisters. they are all dead though and by the look of things, they didnt like having children =/

Mandy

How about getting the death cert and see who the informant was. should be an address too of the informant.

heres the death ref

Name: Desmond James Clifton
Birth Date: 11 Dec 1929
Death Registration Month/Year: Dec 2004
Age at death (estimated): 75
Registration district: Harlow
Inferred County: Essex, Middlesex
Register number: 35A
Entry Number: 128

If you know the area he died in look up for the family name in that area on www.bt.com, ring around and see if they are related...

Im trying to trace anyone who knew my grandad Desmond James Clifton. Due to my parents divorce and my dad leaving us, I never knew my grandad and only found out a few months ago that he died in 2004.

What is the best way of tracing people who are alice now?
I know of www.192.com but cant afford to register and buy the credits [im only 17 lol]
is there any other way?

Thanks
Mandy
