Walter Clarke
« on: Wednesday 11 April 12 15:56 BST (UK) »
Hi Everyone,
I am trying to research Walter Clark who in the last quarter of 1926 he married  Edith Marcroft in Middleton Parish Church. They had a child in 1929 called Ellis. I know about Edith Marcroft and the family after the marriage but need to work backwards down Walter's family line.
I would be grateful of any information.

Kind regards
Zappah

Sorry not much information at all!
Came from Middleton or Middleton Junction in Lancashire.
No birth or death dates.
Lived in Morton Street, and I know that he was a prolific scout master at St Leonard's otherwise known as Middleton Parish Church.
Thank you
Zappah

Hi
I agree to really be sure you always need some documentation.
You really need to get the marriage certificate... and you will then be able to plot the family right through the census ;)
cheers cardiff :)
