Thread: George and Gertrude Ward

My Ward's marry into Wards and I have been trying to unravel a few and follow a few to see where the other's are!

This George is a closer family member but I just can't find him post 1901 nor any of the family

1901 Census RG13/ 3006 Folio: 160 Pg 28
Living at 6 Gallowtree Gate, Leicester
George Ward Head Mar Age 35 Occupation Tailor Cutter Born (Own Account) Leicester
Gertrude F. Ward Wife Age 29 Born Worcestershire, Bromsgrove
George R. Ward Son Age 6 Born Leicester, Leics
Doris M. Ward Dau Age 1 Born Leicester, Leics
Emma Coulton Boarder Wid Age 57 Occupation Monthly Nurse Born (worker) Born Essex, Blackmore

He marries Gertrude Fanny Fisher I believe 1892 and from an early age always lives with his uncle who is a tailor and he trains a couple of the boys, the nearest Doris I can find is actually his brother's daughter who is a couple of years older. The family have only had business's in Nottingham and Leicester with one nephew in Devon, but he comes back and dies in Leicester 1927.

I can't even find a suggestion of a passenger list and have tried combinations for Gertrude remarrying but I can't find any children's deaths which made me look abroad.
I think one child is George Roy as the other birth is for George Reginald and it's not the right family on looking 1911.

George is mentioned in his uncle's will 1903.


Would love some help

Glad you replied, not just me then!

They are all so close to each other thought I might have missed something obvious, can't get a handle on it either!

Haven't left myself a note so never made the decision, one for later again!

Are these any help?

Wouldn't mind 1911 but doesn't look good
Thanks

Nice one Nogs with the marriage, haven't got that. 1911 or lack of kind of threw me!
