Title: Help with Amarjit S Grewal marriage lookup (1960 Woolwich)
Post by: Widget2k13 on Thursday 01 January 26 17:43 GMT (UK)
Hi, I’m trying to trace my grandfather and I’m hoping someone can help with a lookup. I suspect he was born in India then moved to the Uk, but it could potentially show his parents names

Name: Amarjit Singh Grewal 
Married: Joyce E East 
Marriage: Sep 1960, Woolwich (Vol 5d, Page 2122) 

Children: 
- Sharenjit K Grewal (Dartford, 1961-2015)

I can’t afford to order the certificate, but I’d love to know: 
- Amarjit’s age 
- His occupation 
- His father’s name 
- Their address at the time 

After 1967, He immigrated from the Uk to Canada and had more kids over there

Any help would mean a lot. Thanks so much in advance!
 :)

Welcome to RootsChat.

Rootschat has a policy of no living people, so unfortunately you need to remove the children's names.

Not sure that you will have the chance to see the marriage entry for free.  Page number is very large - 2122 - which would probably link to a Register Office marriage.

Ancestry have Electoral Rolls for London

In 1958 & 1959 Amarjit is listed at 57 Charlton Church Lane, Greenwich. It seems to be a boarding house or something similar as there are lots of people with different surnames.

1960-1964 Amarjit and Joyce are listed at above address.
1965 they are at 48 Wessex Drive, Crayford, Bexley.

There is an ER for 2000-2006 in Newport for Joyce E Grewal with a person named East also living there.

Did he die in Nottingham in 2011?  If so - he was born 1941

If he died in Havering in 2022 he was born 1939
