Christine Report 8 Nov 2010 10:33

Can anyone help me please? I am looking for any information about Etienne Girardot who was born in 1856 in Marylebone (I think), and died n California in 1939. He was an actor and played the lead in Charleys Aunt on Broadway, and also appeared in many films. I can find him as an adult on a couple of UK Census returns, but cannot find him on a census as a child.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Christine, as you have access to census reports, I suggest you check out image for the 1871 above. I think relationships are impossible to sort out. Birth cert might be called for!

EDIT Why, thanks Flick. Quite proud of it if I say so myself!
