Hello im trying to find my grandfathers brother Richard Dresden Moore born 1901 Plaistow, My grandfather was Edward Dresden Moore, 1899 both boys were born out of wed-lock to mother Gertrude Moore born 1876. Im guesing that the name Dresden may have been the fathers but nobody knows.
Any help would be great

The above is the website for a local history site for Newham, which includes Plaistow. It is a very small site, but someone, in time, may have an answer for you. Read through previous postings first.
Good Luck
