Ok so my Great Grandfather Claude Pickering Harris was a busy boy and im trying to find out what happened to him after he married his 2nd wife in 1922.
He Married his first wife Ethel in 1907 and had a son(Ernest George Vaughn Harris) in 1910
They Divorced sometime between 1910 and 1921 but have not found the papers.
He was a naughty boy with his parents servant (my Great Grandmother - Emily Margaret Smith) which resulted in my Grandfather Reginald Frank Smith in May 1922
July - Sep 1922 he Married Charlotte A Marshall
He later died December 1968 still married to Charlotte in Bourenmouth, Dorset.
Im looking to find out any information of the period between his marriage to Charlotte and his death and whether he had more children etc.
Also trying to find out what happened to Ernest George Vaughn who I know was on a ship to Melbourne and later on a ship to the US but after that I can find nothing.
Any help gratefully received
Thanks

Vicki

This was the marriage:
Marriages Sep 1922
HARRIS Claud P Marshall S.Stoneham 2c 291
MARSHALL Charlotte A Harris S.Stoneham 2c 291
I cannot see any Marshall-Harris births in Southampton area or Bournemouth area (but there are lots and lots elsewhere)

Hi Patricia,

Thank you for your response. Thank you for having a look for any children they may potentially have had. I have also been looking and could not find anything so I think you have confirmed that there may well not have been any - which is a shame. I was hoping to find some living relatives :-)
Again thank you for looking its nice to have a 2nd pair of eyes on these things - sometimes I feel like im going potty and must be missing something :-)

Many Thanks

Vicki
