Hello Barry, what sort of advice are you after?

If you could let us know whether you're trying to trace his descendants or ancestors then we'll take it from there.

Who were the witnesses on marriage certificate.


It isnt the Bertram Wilfred Scott 1892 Bromley his parents are Charles and elizabeth.

Bertram Victor 1893 parents William 1859 dock labourer in 1911 in Southampton.

Checking Bertram William 1892 Blandford in 1901 he is at Dorchester District Depot barracks with mum Eveline Scott born North America 1869.
She is married so her husband must be in the forces
other children with her
Winifred 6
Kate 5
Chares 3
Edith 8 months.

But was William Scott senior in the navy,this is the Infantry but he could have changed.

I will have another look.

Maryb

Scrap that it isn't him,in his military records it says his dad was Henry Scott mum Eveline
