Hi lostmeboardname and Sylvia

Thank you both for taking the time to look for me

His birthdate was May 3rd so maybe not him, he could have been serving abroad
Do you know if the register lists serving military personel stationed at home?

SylviaInCanada

SylviaInCanada Report 21 Oct 2016 19:52

what were his parents called?

We may be able to find them and see if he is with them.

Pam

Pam Report 21 Oct 2016 19:54

Hi Chris

Samuel and Emily are her parents
I didn't know Samuel was a miner! Or it seems she had a brother too!
I just had their marriage certificate.
My father married my mother in Liverpool 1946 four years before I was born.

It's weird we ended up living in a Eastern Avenue

Thank you so much Chris every scrap of info is most useful

Pam

Pam Report 21 Oct 2016 20:25

Wow Chris you can certainly find the info.
I will be able to update Ivy's records

I'd still love to find my dad in 1939

He may have already joined up so won't show on the1939 register

Have you applied for his army records . They do take time to come through but will give his addresss and when he joined up

Pam

Pam Report 21 Oct 2016 20:33

Oh I'm sorry I hope I didn't sound rude, I didn't mean too!

Yes that's my dad

Pam

Pam Report 21 Oct 2016 20:37

No I read on the site waiting until next year will give more Information
As it will be 25 years since his death. Apparently then you get all the information.
Before you only get partial for the same price.

There is a Catholic burial for this one

Pam Report 21 Oct 2016 21:10

Oh so sorry I should have said.

He also had a brother Michael and sister Frances who died in 1916 + 1918
There was a mysterious younger brother Francis who survived. My mother and brother met him but I've never found his birth.
There is one in Manchester I think even with the same mothers maiden surname but both parents have different first names.

Pam

Pam Report 21 Oct 2016 21:21

My grandparents married Christmas Day 1901
They were John Logan and Mary Catherine maguire
I have all their family history though Mary's stop with her parents father's
Her father was born in Cavan Ireland and her mother was born in Cumbria to an Irish horse dealer!

ArgyllGran Report 21 Oct 2016 22:02

A tree on Ancestry (owner ronalddutton1690 - do you know him?) says brother Francis was born 1912, so this will be his birth, presumably, although the tree says he was born Liverpool:

Births Dec 1912 (>99%)
LOGAN Francis Maguire Blackburn 8e 508


EDIT:

Or is that the Manchester one you mentioned?

Pam

Pam Report 22 Oct 2016 18:34

Hi ArgyleGran

He is my cousins husband

That Francis Logan's parents have different first names to that of my dads parents. I had checked this out some years ago.
