Edward Coote B 1908 Chorlton Manchester

[Tootles]

Hi I am on the first rung of my search I wonder if someone would kindly help me out
I would like to find out who my fathers parents were he had a very strong Geordie accent so I assumed he was from the Northumberland area but was born in Manchester I have just found that out
Rumour had it he had a wicked stepmother and was in a workhouse   
He married my mother Eleanor Steventon 23 9 1931 at Barnsley Register Office
Thank you

Hi

I think you will need to buy a copy of his birth cert to get that information as there is no 1911 index entry matching his profile

[CaroleW]

I wonder if he was illegitimate

There is a 1909 marriage in Chorlton of an Elizabeth Coote to John J Wilson

[CaroleW]

I don't think Elizabeth was his mother.  This is the 1909 marriage entry and using the free 1911 index does not show an Edward living with them

Definitely need that birth cert

Thank you

The fathers names of the couple  may be or should be on the 1931 marriage certificate
