    Default Hello and Help please :s

    Hello everyone,
    I am Jayne from Pembrokeshire in West Wales and I am currently researching my family tree. Here's what I know so far.
    My paternal Grandfathers name was Frederick James Palmer and he was born 31 May 1918. He was born in Whitby and I believe he had a sister Gladys and that his parents were Jane Elizabeth Locker and William Palmer.
    He married my Grandma Blodwen Hooper on 13 January 1941 when he was 23 and she was 16 years old. They married at St Kathrines church in Milford Haven.
    After having my dad David and a younger sister Jeanette he 'disappeared' and my Father never knew him. however unravelling bits of information from the family I feel that there was more to this than meets the eye and maybe he wasn't allowed to see his children as he did contact Dad when Dad left school via letter but Dad wasn't allowed to read it.
    I now know he was based at HMS Rooke in 1941 and in 1937 he was on SS Kildare. That's about all I know really. I'm confused as to what a Dis A No. is on his CR2 card, also why is the top right hand corner missing. confused!!

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Jayne

    Hello pembsgal. Welcome to the site. I am sure someone will be able to help you. Most World War two records are still with the MOD , you can request info from them - not sure how much it costs but quite a lot. You need to state your relationship to the person you are wanting the info on. Could the Dis be disability, distinguished perhaps?
    Do you have any idea where he died? or when, and was your Grandmother divorced? What date was your Father born and is he still alive? I don't suppose you can ask anyone about him any information relating to living people must be sent via pm.
