Hello,
I am hoping that someone may be able to find William Tom Goodfellow b. 1893 (birth registered in Tisbury) may have been born Fovant.
He is listed on the CWGC site as having died 1918 - no parents are listed on his entry there. I would like to be able to connect him to the Goodfellow family in the area.
I am hoping not to have to purchase a Birth Certificate. :)
If found, I would appreciate the 1901 census entry for him and his family.
Many thanks
Michael

Hello Louisa Maud,
Thanks for looking for me - I was hoping he might have been listed as William T or William Tom.
He is shown on the 1914-1918 Memorial in St. George's Church, Fovant, Wiltshire, so I am presuming he or his parents were born in Fovant. (The family in Fovant go back to the mid 1500's)
Best regards,
Michael
ps - the Bertie aged 8, on your reply, also died during WW1
