The Leslie Bradford with Ethel in 1911 is this birth: Leslie Bradford Mar.qtr.1904 Lewisham - mmn Craufurd on GRO index.   However, even for allowance of wrong birth year in 1939 and at death, this birth registered in March qtr. and he is said to have a birthday of 10th April!

You are right Annette - I said that in my reply to Rosie #7

My thoughts lean towards Leslie not being born as a BRADFORD,etc.

Can anyone see Mary and Les* as a couple on the London Electoral Reg?

In 1930 they are shown as living at 31 Toorack Road, Harrow, not there before then.

They married in 1928 so maybe 1930 is the first sighting of them together.

I think that this one is really only going to be solved by a certificate (or two)....

You can sometimes do without, but unless Kinkaid has some other family hints (eg siblings for Leslie, mention of what his father did etc) it's all guesswork.

Sounds as if the 1928 marriage certificate is owned by someone in the family so perhaps an occupation for Leslie's father might throw further light?

Do keep us posted, Kincaid.  In true form, I got quite interested in the actors William Isaac Bedford and Ethel Moir Crawford who are probably completely the wrong people  :o

Good morning Igor,

The Welsh connection is interesting, as I know Leslie bride's family originated in Wales . . .

I am going to contact my sister to find out if the marriage cert is in her hands and if not I will certainly order one

Thank you and Rosie for your assistance too -  and Anette7 too of course
