Yes, rootsgatherer -
I mean that Harry William Collins who died in 1918 is not the right one.

Sorry for any confusion.

EDIT:
Just ignore me! I've just noticed that you said his parents were Charles & Martha, so Harry William is correct.

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

No Problem ArgyllGran. I think actually he probably had just celebrated (if you can do such a think on the battlefield) his twentieth birthday.

Hello

I know this is rather an old thread BUT I am researching Charles COLLINS (b1857, Hertfordshire d 1948, Chiswick) and Martha GURNEY (b 1862, London d 1919 Chiswick) family line. Just to clear up a few things, they had 10 children.

Thomas (b 1888) Mary E (b 1890) Charles Richard (b abt 1892 d 26 Sep 1916, WWI, Somme) Ada Elizabeth (b 12 Feb 1894 d Jul 1977) Lizzie b 1896 Harry William (b 1898 d 18 Oct 1918, WW1 France) Jessie (b Oct 1900) Ernest Frank Collins (b 30 Aug 1902 d Sep 1978) Nellie (b 1904 d 1981) John (b 1907).

Charles was born in Hertfordshire but moved to Chiswick while young with his family. Some of his children were found living in Hertfordshire and some in Bournemouth with Aunts and Uncles.

I would like to get in touch with original poster Karen. Karen if you are out there somewhere please get in touch.
