I am trying to find more details of Albert Spencer,my grandfather who was born at Giltbrook,Nottinghamshire in 1884 and married Edith Stafford in August 1905 at Burton on Trent. |

Hi, This is certainly my grandfather and family and i know where he died in 1960 but can't seem to find anyone who can certify where he was born and his parents names and any other relatives. I remember hearing Giltbrook,Nottinghamshire being talked of when i was a child. |

Having looked at the registration district for Gilbrook it seems to be Basford. I can't really pin him down 1901. Maybe someone else will have more joy, if not you will need the marriage cert. |

Do you know whether he had any brother or sisters? If he did, what were their names and were they older or younger than Albert? |

Thanks everyone for your help, I don't know whether he had any siblings other than me having a great aunt Gertrude who came to stay but am not sure whether she was grandads sister or my grandmothers. |

Hello Pauline, you really need to order a copy of his marriage certificate to get his father's name and occupation so you can trace him back over. |
