George Henry Anderson, married to Margaret Jane Beecroft in Quarter 4 1914.

They a son - Sidney Anderson in 1915 (address at Birth: 6 Moorcroft Cottages, William Street, Ladywood, Birmingham).

Unsure what happened to Margaret Jane (maiden name spelt Beacroft on Sidney's Birth Certificate), but believe that George Henry may have remarried in the 4th Quarter of 1916 to Clara Skidmore.

Any body have information prior to George's marriage to Margaret Jane (year of birth, where he lived etc.) his (potential) second marriage and details of his death?

Buy their marriage cert for £7 and then you will have more details.

FYI the marriage details are Dec 1914, id: 6d 615. This will give you both fathers names/occupations and the ages of the bride and groom. Without knowing their exact ages/area's I did a quick search on freebmd (free site), but nothing is jumping out from Birmingham or warwickshire. The same with ancestry. If you need further help, once you have the other details, don't hesitate to ask. Regards Linda

Linda,

Thanks for this - I reached the same conclusion.

I'll order the certificate and see where that can lead.

Many thanks

Neil.
