Please can anyone help trying to find relation of James Eustace Johnson born 1921

kind regards victoria

Do you have a place name please - have you tried a search on this site to see if anyone else is looking for the family
Liz

I have tried to search on this site and have failed to make a match, or have had no reply, I am no further on with this side of my family tree, I do not even know how many siblings James had. He was based at Andover in the 40s, he was in the army, he lived in Yorkshire most of hios adult life, he retired to Brighton. He may have been born in London.

many thanks Victoria

I am guessing you have this??

Death Registration Month/Year: Jan 2001
Age at death (estimated): 79

If the birth date above is correct there are 2 possible births, but it depends on how accurate the info is - birth years on death certs are not too reliable:

Births Sep 1921 (>99%)
Johnson James E Winter Auckland 10a 510
Johnson James E Lawson Headington 3a 192

do you know of a marriage for him as a cert. could give you his fathers name .
possible James E births if dob is the one on the death cert

Hi
I do have a marrage it was to Ada Elizabeth Easterbrook in 1947, I will get this certificate, if it does have his parents name on it that would help alot, thank you all very much.

kind regards Victoria

If he married in England you will only get his father's name.
Jan

it should give fathers name and occupation unless he has died and it might say d'ced. You could be lucky that a witness might be (mother/ sibling!)

index if you need it
Name: Ada E Esterbrook
Spouse James E Johnson
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1947
Registration district: Salisbury
Registration county (inferred): Wiltshire
Volume Number: 7c
Page Number: 940

do you have all their children's names if so have you tried to find them on search trees?

Thankyou again everyone, I do have five children, only two with father on birth cert: all children are Johnson but sadly 3 have not been found and were adopted. It would be nice if I could find some siblings of James Eustace Johnson, I think his birth cert is the way forward.


kind regards to you all Victoria

as you are not sure of where he was born i think you may need to get the marriage cert to find fathers name . We may then be able to find him or you would have his name to check it out on birth certs to make sure you have the right one!
