Kieth Turton

[Mosh]

I think this will be a iongshot.

As a boy I used to play with Kieth Turton

His family emigrated to Australia in 1956-1960?

He previously lived at Stamper Crescent Skegby, near Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire.

Sorry that's all I can remember.

Best wishes

Hi Mosh,

Now just for your interest and to help you confirm or otherwise that this is your Keith, here are the possible births of the parents from freebmd .

Chisnall, Edna. Mother Topping. June 1/4 1921. vol 8c pg 336 Warrington
Turton, Jack Mother Burgess Sept 1/4 1920. vol 8c, pg 309. Warrington.

Now, I am not good at the Counties, but is Warrington close to Nottinghamshire where you knew Keith?

ADDING:  There is a birth for a Ronald Turton in Nottingham in 1918

Turton, Ronald. Mother Chambers. June 1/4 1918. Nottingham. 7b pg 501

And this is the best I can see for Cynthia

WildE Cynthia. Mother WildE Sept 1/4 1920 New Forest. 2b, 1438

It may sit with cando's 1961 finding.

I think Kieth Turton was born around 1946/1947

I am going to contact my sister tomorrow,to see if she can remember the names of his siblings.

Thanks for your help
