hi,imtrying to find out about the titanic john podesta,he was born alfred john alexander podesta 18887 southampton, to john podesta and wife mary light(born bransgrove hants c1855)they were married south stoneham hants 1879. alfred john married daisy chivers in southampton 25/10/1913. and he died 1966 southampton.
i cannot find anything on john podesta senior at all, mary is down as a widow in 1891,cant find either on 1881 census,she remarried in 1893.
it says on the titanic pieces that john was married when he joined up,but i cant find a previous marriage for him.
could john senior be john married deborah mew in southampton 1864,deborah died sep q 1879,which would fit nicely with the john marrying mary light in dec q 1879!
any help would be appreciated. jackie
