Thank you. I should have said I have the birth cirtificate and there is no father’s name on Derrick’s or his sisters which is how we found out about this. We always thought that Derrick and my mother in law Olive had the same father as the rest of their siblings ‘Webb’

I am looking for information on my mother in laws brother Derrick Webb born in Woodbridge, Suffolk 1928. His mother was Florence Minnie Everett. ( she used Fisher and Webb her married name) We have been told Derrick's father was a German insurance man who lived and worked in the Ipswich area of Suffolk around 1925- assuming 1939 when WW2 broke out he went back to Germany) . I understand when the war finished Derrick went and lived in the German area of Flensburg, Schleswig- Holstein. It is thought he ran a hotel in the area, though do not really know. I am trying to trace Derrick's father who is also my mother in laws father. grateful for any leads or suggestions on how to move this forward. We think Derrick died in Germany around 1986. DNA has been done, but so far no leads. Thank you

Suffolk / Re: parents of Mary Grimwood (abt 1767- 1834)

all the information so far has been useful, some new and some already have, still struggling to identify Mary Grimwoods parents. so many have different views on who the parents may be- so far have as possibles William & Mary of Wattisham- daughter Mary born 1767, names of children fit family names. there is also a Mary G born 1739/40 to a Dorcas Grimwood of Holbrook and a Mary g born 1749 Weststow to John and Alice grimwood though the latter 2 names do not fit named patterns

I am trying to identify the parents of Mary Grimwood born about 1767 In Wattisham, Suffolk, mother of Robert Grimwood (1787-1839) Mary married Thomas Everett in 1789 In Kersey, Suffolk and Roberts name then appears as Robert Grimwood Everett. I have looked at locations, patterns in families etc and still struggling as so many Grimwoods. Thomas and Mary went on and had several children which I am aware off. But would like to follow the Grimwood line back a bit more. any help, suggustions grateful for. many thanks

Sorry not responded to any of the comments I have been busy checking everthing out.

Arthur Reeves in 1891 can be found with his sister Lucy staying with his grandmother maria Skyes in little Barrington.
 
the death of Arthur William !908 I think is right as cannot find a 1911 census- I am awaiting further documents to fully clarify.

I do wonder if there are 2  Henry Joseph Reeves- again awaiting documents to clarify name . lots more to check out !!
