James George Whitehead
« on: Sunday 12 July 09 17:07 BST (UK) »
Born 1882 in Cape Town - died 23/1/1940. I am trying to find out what happened to any of his 6 children, Philip, Hilda Alberts, Joyce Schwamstead (both ladies married names are given), Vivian Robert, Noel and Alan and if anyone knows his exact date of birth, I believe he was born in June 1882.

Hope someone can help.

Steve

Hi
Nice to hear from you.
I was hoping one of his children would know when his birthday was. No doubt you have looked at the cricket websites for his details and seen just 1882 birth.
I have a photo of him taken around 1910. If you could send anything you have that would be great, I have the death cert which gave me the children's names.
I'm researching Warwickshire cricketers from the past and am trying to get as much info on each player as I can, my email (*)
