I am trying to find Edward Wright. I have found him on the 1911 census living with his parents Alice Wright (nee McJannett) and James Garner Wright, but cannot find a correct birth. He was three at time of census. Have sent off for several birth certs but all have been wrong. This person was my dad's brother and I can remember him telling me that he died from TB before I was born in 1944. Can anyone help me please or tell me where I can find any further info.

There's a tree on Ancestry (maybe yours) which shows Stanley James G Wright and Walter James G Wright to be sons of the family.

Assume the G stands for Garner.

If the parents named all their sons with the Garner name, have you looked at this one ?

Have been looking for an Edward James G, but am not seeing one.

Thank you, Discovered Walter and Stanley from this tree some time back but no Edward. Have not sent off for Edward Henry G Birth Cert as he was next on my list. Fingers crossed it is the correct one this time.
