Samuel Thomas Revitt

[icustosi]

IS any one studying  the Revitt family from Shifnal. I am looking for information on Samuel Thomas Revitt ( occupation groom ) born 1890 and married to Mary Elizabeth Ward in 1909. He then seems to have vanished.
His father was William and he was a shoemaker
Anything welcome
 Thanks

Freebmd shows a child born in West Bromwich in 1913 - that's where they married

[CaroleW]

Freebmd also has a Helen Revitt birth in West B in 1909 but no maiden name shown

Forget that entry - different parents

Thanks for that I have a copy of James BC and he died with in weeks - no father named on the BC.
Mary Ward's daughter, Aunt "Dot", Frances Elizabeth was born in the July before they married and was registered under both Ward & Revitt.
Samuel Revitt does not seem to show up in the 1911 Census and I have no idea what became of him.
 Thanks Val

Hi There,
 The top reference is looking very promising to me. What is a Hollow Man ?
 Samuel Thomas Revitt was a Groom in England.
 Thanks Val

Hi Again,
 Would you be able to confirm this

"left Halifax on Corsican  24.1.1912."
I thought it may be  24.1.1913

Thanks Val

I just checked this record and his occupation was a stableman, the Hollowman looks like where he was born

[icustosi]

Great news - Stable man fits in well as he was a Groom in UK on his Marriage Certificate.
Well done and many thanks
