Could you please stick to one thread about this family

Why have you just posted three about the same/related people?

Have moved them across and deleted Horace and Louisa posts - thought it needed to be for each person (will do one thread for each family then).
Thank you

Horace's birth has been listed on Ancestry as 1915 and on Free BMD as 1893

You have been advised to look for living relatives by searching the members' trees on here.
You put the names in, see who has them in the trees, and then contact the members.
If no-one crops up, then no-one on here is related, or is keeping very quiet and is unlikely to be using these boards.
Have you entered these people in your tree on here, so that people can contact you in the future if they join genes in later years?

From another thread...........

Use "Search all trees" under the Search button above.

Put the names in and if you find possible matches you can contact the tree owner to see if you have a connection.

Just delete the automatic message that is there and type your own in giving details of who you think you might have a connection with.

Researching:
Bagley, Millington, Morrey, Edwards, Sims, Weaver

Thank you Reggie

With Percy being age 55 (and his second wife presumably a similar age) they were unlikely to have any children.

With Percy being in Richmond, Surrey is another clue to being close to the Thrasher/Jezard/Courtenay/Solomon family as the Solomon family lived in Kew and Courtenay family lived in Richmond at this time.

Thank you for looking.

As Reggie posted a death for Jessie in 1955 at age 70, she was born about 1885, and so was about 16 years younger than Percy.
Why presume they are a similar age?
Have you tried free bmd, just in case?

Hello Patchem

Yes you're right Jessie was 39 when her and Percy got married so not out of the realms of possibility for having children then.

Bizarrely my father-in-law remembers Percy's wife being called Stella (this family alter their names with such regularity it is hard to keep up or another wife or unmarried partner)!
