Need Help Please.

[Lynn H]

Please can someone give me some advice on how to find the birth of my great grandmother Ada Beatrice Foord's Father? His name is Albert William or William Albert Foord. He was living at 103 Church Rd Murston, district Milton in Kent in 1881 when Ada was born. but i can't find him before that.

                   Any help would be most appreciated.
                                 Thankyou.

                                  Lynn.

Hi Lynn,

According to the 1891 census (do you have the details?) he was born ca. 1863 Maidstone.

He married Emma Foster in Dec quarter 1880 Milton registration district 2a 1406. The marriage cert would tell you his father's name (hopefully).

 

I suppose you have him in 1881?

FreeBMD isnt showing a Foord birth in Maidstone RD with the right forenames 1859 to 1864

Harriet neé Foord from Maidstone had a few male siblings in 1841 census ... all old enough to be your mans father ...
