Green's From Hull

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Rebecca Report 8 Aug 2008 13:52

I have a Florrie Green (Nee Claxton) Born 24th October 1875 at 8 Sykes Street, Hull. Married 15th July 1902 to William Robert Green. I have been unable to locate any details of her death which I believe happend approximately 1922.

William Robert Green - Born Abt 1871 - I cannot find any Birth or Death record for him. I have his marriage certificate.
I have found him in the following Census (1881, 1891 & 1901) and worked out he had a sister and a brother. Esma E and Harry Green. His mothers name was probably Mary Louisa Smeeth and father David Green. However I am not sure.

William Robert Green sent a letter to his son Sydney Green (my grandfather) in 1939 and mentioned the following people;
Aunt Agnes, Aunt Gerty, Aunt Patty and Sydney's brother Frank Green. Also, Buffy and Twenie.

Any help tracing some Green's will be very much appreciated.
Thanks Rebecca.

That is the most promising I have seen yet! I never thought to look with the spelling changed to a single r - how silly of me!

Thank you very much!

Alan,

I have a Birth and Marriage certificate for Florrie. I also have certificates for Sydney (my grandfather). What I haven't been able to do is find if there are any family left.

Thanks Rebecca.
