Hi Angie,



Why not send for his marriage certificate..... it will give you his father's name.



Jun Quarter 1898



Ref-: St. Olave Vol 1d page 475.



St Olave was the registration district for Southwark.



Hope this helps in your search.

hi slizzy

Thats a good idea i had'nt thought of that, you must be getting used to me by now lol, his grandaughter is 98 and she has been thinking about it for a couple of days now ,she has been a great help to me wih my tree.

i will let you know how i get on

thanks again slizzy

angiee

Let's hope you've inherited her genes Angie what a grand old age.



Good luck with your Gutteridges, and yes please - do let me know how things go. When you have William's father's name you can ask for further help with census look-ups.

Hi Angiee

Just a thought if the old lady is 98 that makes her born c1909 if her grandfather was born 1880 could he really be a grandfather aged 29?

I know it is possible but is it very likeley ?

Just a thought.

Lol yeah Don...a grandpops at 29!!



Lol soz not taking the micky Angiee....is your rellie hhis daughter?? that would fit....and maybe she cant remember HER grandparents....WIlliams mum & dad...they would have been around 60ish wen she was born....so they possibly died wen she was young



Good Luck with your research...and hope your rellie gets her telegram from the Queen in the next coupla years!
