Hertfordshire / Re: Thomas Warman/Warmon m Mary Rowley at Standon, 30th April 1705

Thank you so much for that!   I can see why the transcription was difficult.  It definitely happened between a Warman and Mary Rowley.  I am thinking that his Christian name wasn't remembered maybe!  It fits with the first child being baptized in Manuden in 1707 and others thereafter in that parish, with parents of Thomas and Mary Warman.

Ancestry have it in 'England, Select Marriages, FHL number' with Warmon Rowley as the spouse. I couldn't find it on Family Search.  I had looked on Find My Past and found what you did.  Thank you for helping.  I was hoping Free Parish Registers would have it but the marriages for that period for Standon haven't been transcribed.

Thank you for looking.  That is the problem I have found when searching for it on the databases.  I think only seeing the actual PR will clarify.

Hertfordshire / Thomas Warman/Warmon m Mary Rowley at Standon, 30th April 1705

On HALS, I have found the marriage of Mary Rowley to Warman at Standon on the 30th April 1705. I have found the same date and place of marriage of Mary Rowley to 'Warmon Rowley', which must be the wrong transcription.  I am hoping that this is the marriage of Thomas Warman of Albury to Mary Rowley.  Does anyone, please have access to the Standon PR that can confirm the entry details?  Thank you.

Yes, it was the first place I looked.  It is quite complex as he seems to have left a trail of mysteries ie his parents, which she is gradually attempting to solve from the little he said.   The school route is one such trail which may give more info, if he can be identified!

Gloucestershire / Boys Boarding Schools in Cheltenham 1934 to 1944 ish

Can anyone assist to identify a boys boarding school in this period in Cheltenham?  I am researching my sister in law's father and all she knows is that he attended a boarding school there, recalling him speaking of it.  He is now deceased.  He was born 1925/26 and she believes he went at the age of 8.  I have looked on the Gloucs Archives site and done a general search on the internet to no avail.
We are hoping to find more details re him if the school had/has accessible records surviving and we would be able to access/contact each establishment and hopefully identify the school he attended. Thank you for reading and offering any names of schools.
