Some info on the net on Kenneth and his partners in the building company

To find out whether the father was involved in the weaving industry, your should get a copy of one of their birth certs...........

And/or look for the marriage of the parents, and see what the cert says about both of their occupations

it sound to me like Carole would like to know whether the two people in question are part of her family

help with that question does not call for posting the birth and marriage details of people whose children, at least, are undoubtedly still living and don't know they or their parents are being discussed on the internet ......... ?

Occupation: LEDGER CLERK

Name: Elizabeth Jessie Ambler

Relation to Head: Wife
Birth Place: Wedmore, Buckingham, England


this is Percy Charles Ambler in 1881

Name: Percy C. Ambler
Age: 17
Estimated birth year: abt 1864
Relationship to Head: Boarder
Where born: Salisbury, Wiltshire, England
Civil Parish: Clewer
County/Island: Berkshire
Street address: Arthur Road 15 Kings Terrace
Registration district: Windsor
Occupation: Pupil Teacher


unfortunately in 1871 he was at boarding school so it is not possible to tell what his father's occupation was on a quick search

it seems unlikely that it was weaver though

however, weaving was an industry in the Salisbury area from the 17th century so there could be a weaving background

I guess it would help if Carol gave more details e.g. did you know the father's line was from Wiltshire and is this why you asked

but mainly I guess you were hoping someone related might see the post

this being something that happens very very rarely.


someone at this website has

Percy Ambler 1863 Salisbury Wiltshire

in their family tree so that would be a way to find more information possibly

Not sure what you are hoping for . Would guess that their parents have passed away some time ago
