Hello, I am looking for a side of my family that I have hardly any details on, I am not sure if this man has died, but I am looking for a Kenneth G Walker, born Jan feb or mar of 1931 (I haven't got his birth certificate yet, but found it) at St George's, Hanover Square, London.

He was born to an Ivy Pelham (my great aunt) and William Walker. I would like to make my aunt happy and find her cousin, but unfortunately that is all I have to go on. I'm not sure of any further info, and without ordering all of the wedding certificates that have a slight match, I'm not even sure how to tell if and when and who he married, and if he had any children of his own.

There appears to be a quite prominent person in Canada and America with the same name, so so far googling and the likes hasn't got me very far unfortunately. I don't have any idea where he may live now though.

The life of my great aunt and her children are quite a mystery to my side of the family, but I know that my aunt would love to find them again.

I hope that someone out there may be able to point me in the right direction, even if it is just an idea of how to progress, as I have been toying lay looking for a while now and don't really know how to get any further.
Thank you in advance!

Oh and I'll pop back later to see if anyone has come back with anything. Thanks again!

She grew up as Ivy Way. They married in 1930 in Chelsea and he was born not long after.

Sorry, her and her parents (my great grandparents) seem to like the idea of changing names and surnames like socks! She was born Ivy Pelham, but seems to have taken the name of her 'father' ie Mr Way after her birth certificate, and she died (not got the actual document, but it seems to fit) as Walker, in Richmond in 1976. Sorry!

Maybe Kenneth was the informant on her death very .its worth looking at

I haven't got their wedding certificate yet, so haven't got an actual birth date on William yet so haven't been able to narrow down a death date for him. Should probably get on and order that admittedly!

That's a good idea, I will have to get a wiggle on and order that certificate. Thank you. And if he isn't? (Sorry to be negative, just thinking ahead in case!)
