Two Greenhalgh/Overy births on freebmd.......both post-WW2, and both in Lancashire. Hardly surprising - Greenhalgh is very much a Lancastrian name

Hi Everyone. Really sorry this is all new to me and im a bit excited by it all so didnt give much info.
I know my Grandfather to be Leonard Albert Marck who was born in 1897 Southampton
His Parents were Ernest Marck and Ada Marck. I also believe my Grandfather had a brother by the name of Ernest born in 1895.
My Grandfather served in the Navy and Married a lady by the name of Edith Wyatt in 1922.
Later down the line my Grandfather came to essex and im not sure if he Divorced or Edith Died but he was living with a lady Rose Violet Overy who came from the East Ham area. she was born in 1901. She had sisters by the names of Hilda Maria,Gladys mary and Ivy all by the name of Overy.
Rose and Leonard had 3 children one of which is my mother.
I would love to know if i have any living relatives from either side or if Leonard had children with Edith which i believe he did. I am in early stages of creating a tree for my Daughters and finding it facinating.

Thanh you again.

So, if the family in 1911 is correct..................the birth for Ivy is ruled out as being connected.

How much documentary backup do you have?

This is the Ivy born to the above couple......again nowhere near West Ham
