Birth/death lookups please
« on: Wednesday 22 August 12 18:27 BST (UK) »
Can anyone find the birth/deaths of the following
Francis James Wright born c 1892
Alice Wright c1894
Albert Edward Wright c1897
Clarence Albert Wright c1897
Dorothy Wright c1905

Believe all born West Ham area, also believe all/most died before 1911 census. As not shown on the census, unless they were somewhere else?

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks
Karen

Hi,

Have you checked FreeBMD?

Found this possibility in the births index:

Francis James Wright   MarQ  1892  West Ham   4a   332


On census records he might be just Francis, Francis J or Francis James.


Ancestry are offering free acces to 1911 census at the moment.

british army service records
this could possibly be your clarence
albert clarence aged 18 of 131 blenheim road,walthamstow occ cabinet maker has taken the oath on 8th dec 1915
there is a 2 above the word albert and a 1 above the word clarence
i would imagine that would mean his name is actually clarence albert wright
cattell,alcester
vickers,sulgrave
hewish,holborn
manley,bethnal green

Birth for Dorothy?

Dorothy Wright  SeptQ 1904   W. Ham   4a   408       (from FreeBMD)

There are others in the West Ham registration district  (1904 - 1906) but all have a middle name.
