Hello

My 1911 sub has recently run out and I can't resubscribe just yet.

I wondered if someone could have a look at something for me please?

I am trying to find Frederick Henry Connelly, born JFM 1905 in West Ham.

I do not know who his parents are other than I think his Dad is Henry Edward Connelly.

Hope someone can help.

Thanks
Tom

It looks like he isn't with his parents, Tom. He's a boarder at Beach House in Margate:

Turpin, Violet Boarder Single 21 Waitress b Folkestone
Leary, May Boarder Single 25 Waitress b Paddington
Connelly, Fred Boarder Single 6 b Plaistowe
Garner, Frank Boarder Single 27 Glass Blower Thermometer Maker b Cripplegate

If you can tell me more about his father I can look to see if they have the 'wrong' number of living children at home.....

Ooo, that's great Merry!

His Mother was a Turpin before she married.

Looks like I do have the correct death for his Father then. :)

Just checked and Violet is his mother's sister so looks like I have got the right family after all.

I have been trying to tie up the loose ends around my great grandad's half brothers.

I purchased a death certificate for who I thought might be one of them, to find the informant was F H Connelly. So now I have connected that Frederick Henry Connelly to that family it looks like eveything is going right :)
