Member Since: October 2006 Posts: 140 Send Message	Would anyone know how to trace a person after 1920-23 I am trying to trace my grandfather William Morgan, I have all his army papers and he was discharged in 1915 on medical grounds. The last time anyone heard about him was in Llanelli in 1920-23. He fathered 2 children with Mable Follows (maiden name)Hooper (married name) they did not marry. What would I need to find out next to try and trace him, I have plenty of details on his family prior to 1920 but he seems to have vanished. I cannot find him in the Death registry because I do not know when he died. He was born in 1894.in Cardiff. I have hit a brick wall. Cheers Pauline
