'Lost' aunt and uncles
« on: Monday 17 March 25 09:42 GMT (UK) »
I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I've 'lost' an aunt and uncle, I can't find them in records besides their birth and 1921 census. Beatrice Clements born 1909 in Middlesbrough and Charles Clements born 1913 in Middlesbrough and George Clements born c 1918 in Middlesbrough. My mother only ever talked about her sister Beatrice who I know moved to London and was definitely still alive in the 1960s but the others I have no information on, maybe they died in the war or emigrated like my uncle Fred? I'd like to find them so I can maybe trace living relatives. Can anyone help?

If you access to Ancestry, George's baptism is on there s/o Thomas William and Edith Beatrice bapt 13 March 1918, born 27 Feb, so it looks like the right death record.
I would guess at his age he would be in the military in 1939, so not on the register

Their father, Thomas William Clements (died 1947) left a will. That might mention children

Whilst Charles was only recorded as Charles at birth (28.1.1913) could he have adopted second Christian name Thomas later life as there is a death with same dob in 1979 in Stepney

 I have a lot of examples of people in my tree, registered / baptised with a singe forename and adding a middle name later. I have a brother and sister, where the boy added their father's name and the girl added their mother's name. So for Charles to add his father's name is quite possible.

I posted because there’s no Charles Thomas born 1913.
