If anyone has any information that may help please get in touch .All other avenues have been explored.They were all born in London area. Thanks.

I have his name and that of his wife on my mum and dad's marriage certificate (she was Lilian Ada). The marriage was registered in Hackney in January 1940 so my grandfather would have been born in the 1890s (dad was 21 at the tiime of his marriage).Unfortunately after my dad was killed in WW2 mum lost contact with her in-laws so I know very little more about them. I've been trying to find more about them but am struggling. I we both on the same trail? Best wishes, Frank Parker.
