I am probably posting this request, in the incorrect place, so please bear with me, as been so long since been on here.
I am trying to find who the parents were of a William J. Tutty. He was married in 1955, Eastbourne to a lady, surname O Dwyer, although in some records it does say Dwyer.
It seems he was married in Eastbourne but not sure who his parents were or whether he actually came from Sussex.
The reason I am trying to find, without too much information, is that I have my Tutty family in Surrey, and am trying to see if there is a connection.
William did have a son, with the same name, so not to be confused with him.
I would think that, given the marriage date, he must have been born somewhere between 1925 and 1940??
Any help would be really appreciated, pleasse. It really just is his parents that I nned to find, in order to get back further.
Thank you very much

Hit Report to moderator at bottom of your post and ask for it to be put in Sussex as it is now in Sussex Completed Lookup Requests
-
Thank you very much. I appreciate your advice
-
He could still be living in which case you should remove his name
-
I will do, but any idea how I would find out how to get back further, then, as when we start our tree, we start with more recent members of a family, and dont always know their names, to begin with, so have to research them.
-
The reason I added his name, in full, was because I found a record for a William John Tutty in Eastbourne, b 1930 died 1990 so assumed it was him
-
There is no 1930 birth registration showing on freebmd though the death index shows a birth date of 24 apr 1930. Have you tried looking for him on the 1939 register

Really the only way to get information on people born after the last census is either the 1939 register or the marriage certificate
-
Actually I hadnt looked on the 1939 records. But I will. Thank you very much. I cant believe he isnt showing up anyway else, apart from his marriage. I appreciate your advice, thank you
-
Perhaps he was not born here. I can't see any trace of his wifes birth either -date of birth from death index 11/03/1929
-
Thank you again, he may have come from Surrey. Some of th Tuttys, apart from other parts of the country, were from Mitcham, but also Oxfordshire and some other places, originating from Ireland.
-
I don't know how relevant this is but I knew a Sidney George Tutty born Boston Lincs c1904 died there 1964.
I know he had a family. Might be worth a look.

Hi Redroger,
i dont think that it was one of my Tuttys, although most of them did stay around the Mitcham area, it could be a long shot to check out. There is a Sidney J Tutty who emigrated to USA, he was born in Mitcham, though, and was one of my connections.
This Sidney just had two daughters, to my knowledge.
Thank you
-
The Tutty iknew was Sidney George who Wasa train driver at Boston Lincolnshire. One son at least possibly still living
-
Thank you, I will keep that person in mind, as i expand my search.

If he was born in England or Wales in 1930 you should be able to find his birth indexed here-
https://www.freebmd.org.uk/search
If he was born in Northern Ireland or Scotland his birth will not be available in online indexes.
If he was born in Ireland the registration is too recent to be online but should be listed on Family Search- there are several possibilities in the index there and mother's maiden name listed but no way to tell if any of them are the person you've asked about.
I am trying to find who the parents were of a William J. Tutty. He was married in 1955, Eastbourne
The marriage certificate should list father's name and occupation (unless illegitimate).
Correction- see reply #18

Thank you. I did find a birth for both a Judith O'Dwyer and a William J Tutty, in Ireland, both born 1929, but as it states, on his death record, that he was born in April, 1930 i have dismissed this birth record, as one for him,although I am not sure about Judith, though, as have nothing to corroborate this information.
Thank you for your help and advice
-
As I said there are several possibilities in Family Search and it's possible the informant was mistaken about William's date of birth or he didn't use the same date as his actual birth.
This one is certainly possible for an April 1930 birthdate-

If he was born in ... Scotland his birth will not be available in online indexes.
On the contrary, you can look for Tuttys in the online indexes to the statutory registers of births right up to 2018 (ScotlandsPeople)
-
Thanks for the correction, jonw65, have amended my original post- meant to say the actual birth wouldn't be online

Hi, I am William (known as Bill) Tutty’s niece, Judith O’Dwyer (known as Sheila) was his wife. They lived in Hailsham East Sussex, sadly both have passed away now. Have wonderful memories of them both.
