Edward Coote B 1908 Chorlton Manchester

[Tootles]

Hi they are my fathers birth details as for Arthur I would have no idea where he was born
My father didn't talk about his past what I have picked up is really hearsay and unfortunately my relationship with him was fraught until his latter years
Thanks

Hi

Keep this post open and when you get his birth cert - post details of his parents plus mothers maiden name here and we will pick up again

Did Edward die in 1992 in Middlesex?  If so - he was born 25th April 1908

The 1931 marriage was in Yorkshire

Hi
Just to confirm I received my fathers birth certificate yesterday it shows his father as Arthur Coote and mother as Elizabeth Geddes they were living at 20 Dorset Street West Gorton Manchester.
I'm now wondering who was living with them in the household and what happened between then and my grandfather turning up at 69 Dibley Street Newcastle with just two of their children.
Thanks for your help
