Thank you very very much.

Can I ask how you found those please?  Is there a way to search the years that haven't been transcribed on FreeBMD?

Edit -
Actually, there is another Gertrude E Rolfe who dies in Q.3 1935 in Great Yarmouth, age 77 - I think this is her, the age and location sound right

Agree the Gertrude you found  -  I'm afraid I stopped when I found one  :-[

I use the index on findmypast - I have a sub  ;)

Me neither, between Wharton/Warton Rolfe/Rolf/Ralph there's nothing. That's why I thought he could've died young.

Maybe they were reckless young things and never married?
I really appreciate your help looking at this  :)

That would be a nice thought, and would tie in with the first child being born in 1912.
For now I'm going to take that as the story, and maybe come back to it another time.

Thank you again, so much, for all your help

Hello,

I see you were looking at the Rolfe family. WH Rolfe particularly who was my great grand father.  If you have not found out already they got married in Canada.

I have further details if you wish.

Regards,

Julian Marsh

Hi Julian,

Sorry for the delay in reading your reply (arranging a marriage of my own!)

How lovely to find out that they got married in Canada.

This was pretty much the extent of my research on the Rolfe family; I was looking into them as previous occupants of a house rather than as relatives of my own.

I don't have anything else I can share with you, but would love to hear any more information about the family if you wouldn't mind.

Best wishes,
Louise
