Albert Walter Woollard - where are you?

[Virginiacarter]

I have managed to track my grandfathers brother - Albert Walter Woollard b. 1889 Lambeth, London, through to the 1911 census when he was a 22 yr old railway porter living with his widowed mother and some siblings at 42 Upper Marsh, Islington.

Does anyone know where I can look to try and trace him and any subsequent marriage and children etc.

Where do I go from here?

Any advise would be appreciated please...

There is a marriage for an Albert W Woollard to Florence E Mingay

Mar 1915 St Olave 1d/311

It might be worth looking into it but you would need to get the certificate to be sure.

Thanks Jen - that was quick!.

I'll look into that.

Are you sure about "Upper Marsh, Islington"?  The only Upper Marsh I know is across the river in Lambeth.

Hi Anna, my mistake.  I believe Upper Marsh is just below Waterloo Station, as you say - across the river, from Westminster.

Thank you very much Devis - and all of you for your help.  That moves me a step or two further on.

And little did I know when sitting at Waterloo station waiting Eurostar for my first trip to Paris the day after 7/7, that I was within spitting distance of where my grandparents and great grandmother were living in 1911.

Thanks again, all of you.

Ooo spooky I have just found some ancestors at 35 Upper Marsh on the 1911 census this morning - hello neighbours! 

[Virginiacarter]

That is spooky Meriel.  Assumedly they would have known each other.

Small old world.
