George TUCKER - Haulage Company in Cardiff

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Sally Report 27 Nov 2014 16:45

Hi,

I have been looking into info re George TUCKER, born 1890.
George was married to a Margaret H BAVERSTOCK in 1922, he had been married to a Margaret REES in 1914, she died in Feb1919.

George had a Haulage Business in Cardiff, based for about 35 years at Heath House, Cardiff, he left there in Dec 1948, and carried on the business in Newport Road, Cardiff, called Tucker's Transport.

I have found the entry in the paper when George moved out of Heath House, but wondered if some clever person could see if there was a write up re death of Margaret (the first or second !!!!! ) or for George.

No Reggie !!!!!!!, I don't have a date for death for George, I have looked, but maybe someone clever like yourself, or someone in Cardiff could help, that is if he died there !!!!

I know I will have to send off for death certs to confirm info, but if anyone has any light bulb moments -------------------------------

Many thanks.

Regards

Sally

Unclear as to what you're actually looking for - or how much research you have done

Does this have any relevance?

It seems that someone called Reggie has been corresponding off-board with Sally.

It would be helpful to know what info he has provided

Hi Jacqueline, Gins and ArgyllGran

Many Many thanks for all your help.

I am trying to find anyone related to George TUCKER, he was married to my Dad's Auntie, ( his second marriage )

I did put the link with Emma TUCKER, but because I now want info re George, ( her father) I did a new link.

Just to say Reggie is on this site, he always helps, but he always asks ...... have you done this or that, so I thought I would say what I had looked at, but he hadn't answered this link !!!!!!!

I have been very busy, but now I can spend time sorting out all the info you have given me.

Regards
Sally :-)
