Great, Great Grandfather

[jemima_jemima]

My Great-Grandad was abandoned as a toddler, and he never spoke about his father, not even by name. Unfortunately, he died without every knowing what became of him, even though I am sure part of him wanted to know.
I was therefore wondering whether anyone with access to the 1911 census could research for me. My family do not know that I am researching him, but I really would like to find out.
If anyone could help me I'd be much appreciated.

My Great-Grandad was called Ivan Frederick Hall, born 30th November 1915
His mother, and wife to my Great, Great Grandfather: Mabel Eleen Bard, born abt. 1893 in Essex

I realise this is a lot to ask, but I really would appreciate it! I will carry on digging in the mean time!

Hi

Sorry but we are not allowed to do 1911 look ups 

I presume that this is your gt grandfathers birth registration - if so it is giving his mothers maiden name as Hall 

Births Dec 1915 
HALL    Ivan F   
mothers maiden name HALL   
Horsham    2b   440

Marriages March qtr 1920
Bard    Richard    (spouse Hall)   
Hall    Mabel E    (spouse Bard)
Edmonton    3a   1017

YES! I think it is! That is her name! This is great thank you, we have a name, hopefully! Is he findable on the census? Really thank you so much!

That was because I am unsure which county he may be from, the family history flicks between Herts and Essex.

It's always advisable to link your posts when the content is the same and therefore not create duplicate look ups

It is always advisable to give links to duplicate posts as it avoids duplication of look ups.
