desperately stuck

[UKgirl]

Hello again,

Out of interest, if you knew that so many children were born up until 1923, why did you look for their father's death among the First World War casualties?

Perhaps it's a stupid question, but I am a bit curious.

no thats quite true the answer is up until yesterday i posted my family tree on Genes Reunited and found someone that i thought was related to me so we got talking and he told me he couldnt be my george wileman as he died in the war and sent me that via email so that completely crushed 3 months worth of work on the wileman side

and i just cant belive it regards jason

You can order certificates direct from GRO online at

www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/

You will need the reference you have got from FreeBMD.

or try Nuneaton Register Office direct

Riversley Park, Coton Road, Nuneaton, CV11 5HA tel: 02476 348941

The reference will not be relevant to the local office but if you know the quarter and year and the names they should be able to find it for you.

Hope this helps.

I see his name is George T Wileman on FreeBMD. Might help narrow down the search

was that for the birth or marriage regards jason

It's for the marriage you quoted  (if we are talking about the same marriage, of course: bride named Salisbury)

yes that is for certain well im 99% sure of that as my gt gran said that my gt grandads fathers name was george and he came from around kingsbury area she thinks but my gt gt gran was called addy and that was short for something but she didnt know her maiden name then i looked on free bmd and there was george wileman married adelaide salisbury in nuneaton 1913.

so we are now looking for a george t wileman
thanks regards jason

Jason! Do you mean you don't even have your grandfather's birth cert     

Do you know when Addy died so that we can at least check whether her name was Adelaide?
