[Name removed] was my cousin at 15 Kent Road, Tottenham N15 in 1956 but I had never known the name of his father. His mum was my aunty Wynn. I would like to know the name of my uncle.

Do you know roughly when he was born, Albert?

My uncle died in 1956-7. I recall him being only around 50-years old when he died so his D.o.B would be around 1907. His sister, my mother, had been born 1906.

This looks likely for your uncle, though: Ernest J D Sadler died Jul-Sep 1957 Edmonton, age 52. I will check for more info in a sec.

These are the Sadler / Grimes births which come up on the new online GRO birth index:

Herbert Frederick Granville Edmund Sadler Apr-Jun 1900 Docking district
Percy Alexander Henry Gordon Oct-Dec 1902 Docking district
Ernest Joseph Desmond Oct-Dec 1904 Docking district
Madeline Beatrice Alberta Maud Oct-Dec 1906 Edmonton district
Agnes Oct-Dec 1910 Edmonton district

So that confirms that Ernest J D Sadler was your uncle. He married Winifred Parrish in 1947 Edmonton district.

Can I please just check whether the cousin who you mentioned is still alive, or deceased, please, as if he is still alive we need to remove his name from the thread.

Could be something, could be nothing...

There's a birth for a Philip J Sadler, mmn Parish, Q1 1930 Pancras, London.

There's also a will & grant entry for a Philip James Sadler - date of death: 26/09/2013 - on the government's probate search website.

Would this be your cousin, Albert, or am I at crossed wires? (Quite possible!)

There is a Sadler / Parish marriage in 1929 in Lambeth, though, James. (Edward J Sadler / Adelaide V Parish). And Ernest and Winifred didn't get married till 1947. So I doubt that Philip is connected.

I see you have some other threads here, and people have been helping you. It might be worth making a list of questions/persons of interest - so long as they refer to the same branch of the family, ideally - and then we can help you in a single thread, as I suspect many of these people are linked?

As Kate has already said, however, it would be best not to post information about persons you believe to be living, as it is against the forum rules.

Of course, the problem with secret cousins is that unless you know for sure that any are already dead, they may well still be alive. I have run into this problem myself, with cousins of my grandmother, and it turned out that one was 95 and living in Quebec. :o

I can't find a corresponding birth for your cousin, but of course he may have been given a different name.

The information of today means that my cousin [name removed], now aged about 73-74 if still alive, was possibly not the legitimate son of my aunty Wynn. However, I suspect that his father had produced him and others before marrying aunty Wynn in 1947 because cousin [name removed] had already been around for 3-4-years.

My uncle Ernest died aged 52 in 1957. At that time, his youngest son had been aged 9-years, meaning Uncle Ernest had produced the boy at around age 43. However, I strongly suspect that uncle Ernest had been busy elsewhere before 1947, perhaps even married to another woman, and had other sons or daughters.

There is a death for a Violet Sadler Jan-Mar 1946 Edmonton, age 37.

And this is from the National Probate Calendar for 1946:
SADLER Violet of 13 Kent-road Tottenham London N15 (wife of Ernest Desmond Sadler) died 27 January 1946 at North Middlesex County Hospital Edmonton London N18 Administration London 8 May to the said Ernest Joseph Desmond Sadler trolley bus driver. Effects £421 7s 6d.

albert73
06-03-17, 16:57
So my suspicions are not without foundation. My uncle Ernest had first been married aged 28-years to Violet, a name I recall being mentioned. I further suspect that some kids had been born between 1932 and 1946 (a period of 14-years) when Violet had died. There must be a record of this somewhere.

What's your next family mystery? :)

albert73
06-03-17, 17:58
Thanks for enquiring about my next family mystery James18 now aged 28!

My uncle Ernest had two bothers, also trolleybus drivers on the same routes in north London.

Herbert F G Sadler was born in Docking 1900.

Percy Alexander H G Sadler born in Docking 1902.

I recall both uncles living alone in Edmonton and Enfield. However, I doubt very much that they had never produced any kids who would also be my cousins. Hopefully, some records exist?

James18
06-03-17, 18:03
Albert, if your great uncles did have any children then they'd be very difficult to trace unless they were legitimate, which from what you say does not appear to be the case.

You're talking about people born c1920 - 1945 who can't be traced through census records, and can't be easily traced through birth records, because we don't know what the mothers' names would be.

Do you have any names to go on?

albert73
06-03-17, 18:16
One name is Christine Grace Sadler born 1946. I believe both of the uncles mentioned had been married at some time.

James18
06-03-17, 18:27

I expect James didn't post the others because he hadn't been able to confirm they are deceased.

You can use this free site:

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

to look them up yourself... In this case, click 'Births' and complete the names for 'Surname' and 'Spouse/Mother surname' (James posted them in post #34) and perhaps restrict the date range to something appropriate. Then click 'Find'.

James18
07-03-17, 10:18
That's correct, Merry.

There are several probable marriages for your Uncle Percy's son of the same name, it seems, but although he is probably still alive I have not yet been able to find an address for him.

I haven't been able to find anything about the lady you mentioned in post #33 of this thread. Might she have been a Sadler by marriage?

albert73

Albert, where did you apply to for Christine's birth certificate?

I did it about one hour ago. I think it is called the GRO. I used it last week but forget why!!!

Merry
07-03-17, 11:34
Well, I'm afraid the GRO won't find anything because there is no entry on their index.

The records held at the GRO are copies of what is held at the local register offices where events are registered. Very occasionally records are 'lost' between the local offices and the GRO. If you want to be completely certain there is no birth registration in the name Christine Grace Sadler you would need to apply to the local register office who hold the birth records for Dunstable in 1946. This is either Luton:

The Register Office, 6 George Street West, Luton LU1 2BJ

[email protected]

or Central Bedfordshire:

The Register Office, Pilgrim Centre, 20 Brickhill Drive, Bedford MK41 7PZ

[email protected]

(it's not possible to know which office has the records without contacting them)

There's a remote chance they might have a record which is not at the GRO.

If the estate was large there's every chance some heir hunter company will have already done this and found nothing.

Herbert's full name was Herbert Frederick Granville Edmund Sadler (see post #6).

He was baptised 29 Jul 1900 at Ingoldisthorpe, date of birth given as 24 Apr 1900.

National Probate Calendar entry from 1976:
SADLER, Herbert Frederick Granville Edmund of 14 Victoria Villas Victoria Road Waltham Abbey Essex died 15 June 1976. Administration London 20 August £13443.

The date of birth on the matching death registration is 24 Apr 1900, confirming this is the right person.

I can't see a marriage for him.

The only reason that Philip was mentioned on this thread was because his mother's maiden name was Parish, similar to the maiden name of Ernest's second wife, Parrish. But like I said before, there is a Sadler / Parish marriage in Lambeth in 1929: Edward J Sadler / Adelaide V Parish, so I expect they were Philip's parents, and you haven't mentioned being related to Edward J Sadler.

Looking at the 1953 London electoral register on ancestry, Edward J Sadler, Adelaide V Sadler and Philip J Sadler are all together at the same address.

Percy Sadler married Gertrude A Money in Edmonton in 1925. There's a Gertrude Alice Money born Edmonton in 1903; in 1911 she was with her parents Richard and Gertrude, her two siblings, Susan and Alfred, and a couple of lodgers.

Richard Money and his wife Gertrude, née Merry :) , had two more children after 1911, Emma L born 1912 and Charles W born 1916.

By 1939 Richard was widowed, and living at 33 Claremont Street, Edmonton with his son Charles W and the two Sadlers, his son-in-law Percy's brother Herbert and father Charles.

Percy and his wife Gertrude were living next door but one, at 29 Claremont Street , Edmonton.

Edward Sandler (born 1902) wasn't the half-brother of Ernest and the others: his father was a Charles Frederick Sandler, but not the same one who married Agnes Grimes. His mother was Louisa Caroline, née Sadler.

Edward's father was born in 1855 and died at 3, Shannon Grove, Brixton in 1906, whereas the father of Ernest and the others was born in 1869 and died in 1941.

There is a likely marriage for him in 1949 but I don't know whether his wife is still alive, so won't post the details up here. If you search on FreeBMD (link below) for marriages, Surname = Sadler, first name John E D, it should come up, but let me know if you can't find it and I will send you a PM. Unfortunately the wife's surname is too common to be able to tell whether they had any children from searching the birth index. His will should tell you but I wouldn't advise ordering that unless you know for sure that he was a relative of yours, otherwise you could be wasting money.

Unfortunately the wife's surname is too common to be able to tell whether they had any children from searching the birth index. His will should tell you but I wouldn't advise ordering that unless you know for sure that he was a relative of yours, otherwise you could be wasting money.

Also, if you have a subscription to ancestry, there is a private tree on there called "Sadler Family Tree" which has John E D Sadler born 1929 London in it, so you could try contacting the owner of that tree for more information.

The free BMD only says marriage/Wood Green/[bride's surname].

Albert, I have removed her name from your posts in case she is still alive.

There are a lot of Sadler births with that surname as MMN but no easy way to know which, if any, of them, belong to that couple. Like I said, the easiest way to find out whether he had any children would probably be to order a copy of his will.

O.k.

Winifred Alabaster married Albert H C Parrish Jul-Sep 1933 Edmonton district. Winifred is probably the one whose birth was registered Apr-Jun 1912 Edmonton district, since her date of birth on the 1939 Register is 10 Mar 1912.
Albert H C Parrish died Oct-Dec 1946 Edmonton, age 37.

Ernest D J Sadler married Violet Raven Jul-Sep 1932 Edmonton.
Violet Sadler died Jan-Mar 1946 Edmonton, age 37.

Ernest J D Sadler married Winifred Parrish Apr-Jun 1947 Edmonton.

So, since your father's parents were Ernest and Winifred, he had older half-siblings on both sides - children of Ernest and Violet and one side, and of Albert and Winifred on the other. I will have to send you their names in a PM because I don't know whether they are still alive.

There is a Sadler / Parish marriage in 1929 in Lambeth, though, James. (Edward J Sadler / Adelaide V Parish). And Ernest and Winifred didn't get married till 1947. So I doubt that Philip is connected.

Sadlerj, are you the same person as jsadler who posted posts #83 and #85 above, please? If so then I will need to merge your two accounts, so let me know which one you would like to keep.

There is a record of a Charles Frederick Sadler who was in the Rifle Brigade in WWI but he does not appear to be the same person as your great-grandfather.

I think this is your great-grandfather Charles F Sadler on the 1939 Register (already mentioned previously in this thread):

https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageviewer/collections/61596/images/tna_r39_0730_0730a_004?backlabel=ReturnSearchResul ts&queryId=a72556a142e6a44f119bb6bd6e06e5ea&pId=9873333

At 33 Claremont Street, Edmonton, date of birth 6 Aug 1869, painter (i.e. house painter). There is a Charles F Sadler death in Edmonton Jan-Mar 1941 age 72 which is probably him.

The Charles Frederick Sadler who was in the Rifle Brigade died in 1916 in WWI, so is not the same person.

As for Ernest, most WW2 records aren't available online yet so I can't find out whether he was in the army or not. He would have been the right age for conscription in WW2.

The Africa Star is a WW2 medal and as I said, most WW2 records are not available online yet.

I sent you the details before - to your old account. I believe that when I merged your two accounts, the PM's from the old account should have been moved to your new account. Have a look at your private messages to see whether they are there. (There is a link at the top right-hand corner of the screen.)

The names which you mentioned in your latest post are from PM's which I sent to you, and the reason I sent the PM's is because those people may still be alive and our website rules say not to post details of living people unless you have their permission to post them. I don't have any more information than what I sent you in the PM's.
