I think you are right Michael, LOL

I hope Sandra comes back to see this information. I find so many people using the Trying to Find board do not.

I'm assuming that the Holt that Frederick Williams married was Alice and not Samuel!

Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Marriages Dec 1906 (>99%)
>>> HOLT Alice Watford 3a 1401
HOLT Samuel Watford 3a 1401
TRIPP Nellie Watford 3a 1401
>>> Williams Frederick Watford 3a 1401

Pure guesswork, but just going on the area Arthur was born, maybe these are the parents

But Arthur's birth cert would confirm it


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marriages Dec 1906

>>>>>>>>>>>HOLT Alice Watford 3a 1401
HOLT Samuel Watford 3a 1401
TRIPP Nellie Watford 3a 1401
>>>>>>>>>>>>Williams Frederick Watford 3a 1401


EDIT :
Think we are all singing from the same hymn sheet !

KathleenBell Report 22 Sep 2010 20:51

This could possibly be his parent's marriage:-

Name: Frederick Williams
Year of Registration: 1906
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Watford
County: Hertfordshire
Volume: 3a
Page: 1401

On the same page is Alice Holt.

It could possibly have been a double marriage for brother and sister as the other two people on the same page are Samuel Holt and Nellie Tripp.

A possibilty that Alice and Samuel were brother and sister???

This looks promising:

Surname First name(s) Mother District Vol Page
Births Mar 1914 (>99%)
WILLIAMS Arthur G Holt Watford 3a 1611

If you buy a copy of the birth certificate those unknowns should become known!

This birth certificate is the place to start.
It will tell you the parents name (mother HOLT)


Births Mar 1914

WILLIAMS Arthur G - Holt - Watford 3a 1611

KathleenBell

KathleenBell Report 22 Sep 2010 20:47

This is his birth certificate reference:-

Name: Arthur G Williams
Year of Registration: 1914
Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar
Mother's Maiden Name: Holt
District: Watford
County: Hertfordshire
Volume: 3a
Page: 1611

The certificate will give you his parent's full names.

" William's parents "
Do you mean there is a William Williams ?

Can you give a location for Arthur George Williams please

MarieCeleste

MarieCeleste Report 22 Sep 2010 20:45

Sandra, you're right about searching with little info! People here will have the same problem.

As a starting point, are you saying that Holt was the maiden name of the mother of Arthur George Williams?

Can you give a little more info as to how you arrived at these people?

Sandra

Sandra Report 22 Sep 2010 20:42

I am looking for unknown Holt, married to unknown Williams’s parents to Arthur George Williams 1913-1984 - Watford
It seems impossible to search for people when you have no idea of names places and birth dates
