I have been doing some genealogy sessions with some students and one young lady is already stuck with hers.
I have tried to find her more on her gg grandfather but can only find his marriage and death. I suspect as his middle name was Kyle that it was a possibility his original surname but that is a guess.
His name was Archibald Kyle Stocks who was born on 24Th Feb 1916 and he got married in Ipswich Suffolk in 1943 to Mabel Single, he died still in Ipswich in 1991 .
I was also wondering if these names are Scottish which is why we are struggling to find a birth or census for him.
Any help would be most appreciated, I am really trying to keep his enthusiasm going and a brick wall so early is not helping :
-
Have you got the marriage certificate which would give you more info re his father.

No Archibald with either names listed March or June quarter, 1926, as said previously a marriage cert would be a good idea or Suffolk records office for the original parish if it is thought to be a church marriage
Good luck
