What are you wanting to know Angela?

Click on Search top right of this page, then Search all members trees and input what details you know. You can then see if anyone else is researching the family and make contact with them.

and here we have yet another posting on this family - please stop starting new threads Angela - the unwritten rule is one thread per family - you have many so people are repeating research for you

Thanks Ann

Thanks for the links to the other threads - I have quickly looked through them but didn't find this family mentioned?

I think this is them on 1911 though ages are a little out - occupation for father does fit with the one previously mentioned somewhere:

It does explain 'Kenneth'............

Married 4 years so fits with the Harding marriage above.

Sorry - have to go out but you might want to follow Donalds middle name of Lovering to see if it connects somewhere??

this information was supplied top Angela in 2013

Thanks Ann,

I didn't have much time to look through them before I went out - this is what happens when there are too many threads on the same person. ;-)

I posted the 1939 register on one of the many threads.....ANgela doesn't bother to respond to anything it seems...just starts another thread!

I am wanting to know about their 3 sons ,cannot find anything about them ,Donald ,Kenneth and Norman [my Dad ] ,other people have tried but they cannot find connection with both parents ,were some adopted ? did they have different fathers ?
regards Angela

Why do you think the boys had different fathers please? If you buy the birth certificates you'll get the father's name. When was Norman born?


If you have Frederick Kenneth's birth certificate, you'll know which of these deaths is his.

You said somewhere that Kenneth had been married to a Trixie (probably a nickname) - could this be the marriage:

Going back to Donald''s middle name of 'Lovering' - I knew it would come in useful one day !! :-D

This fits with the Frederick J on the 1911 census above and he also works on the railways by 1901 (although only as a porter at that time)

thankyou for your time and effort ,much appreciated ,I will look into this more ,as I have been a member for many years ,I still don't get the gist of the way things are done ,I do apologise for starting new threads ,I am not a computer wiz ,just a basic user ,once again thankyou

You are welcome Angela.

I am sure that you are forgiven for starting so many threads but as you have seen, it does complicate things for everyone, including yourself, if you don't keep all the info together so that it can be seen what has already been researched and what info has been found or discounted. This prevents people from getting irritated by spending time and effort looking for things which have already been found.

I think all the above now fits very well with the people you are looking for but you would be best to invest in a couple of certs to prove that it is all correct.

I will see if anything else can be found...............

Let us know if there is anything specific which you would like to discover.

Hello Angela, just a helpful hint for navigating these boards - over on the left of these screens are some menus. There is one headed "Tools" - under that is a link called "My Threads", if you click on that it takes you to all threads that you've started or posted on. When you have a further query about a family that you've previously asked about then just find the relevant thread and add to it - that will move it up to the top of the boards.

Going back to the 'possible' Trixie:
