Do you know if there were any children from the first marriage or even the second to try and narrow it down a bit?

Kirsty,,,,,
So.... my dad, LAWRENCE, born in India, came to the UK in 1939, with his mum and brothers and sisters...... perhaps later joined by his father PERCIVAL, who remarried an ELSIE WOODS ??!!
i wonder what happened to EMILY ?
We used to go and visit his sister NOREEN in Hanworth and i remember her husband REGINALD GARROD...
I also fondly remember CLARENCE and PEGGY,, all now passed away.
SOOOOO much to think about and take in...
Im just going to have a think for a few mins,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Martin,

pooooooooooooooooo!!! ~ was because this is going to be hard!!

I have asked someone to look on the incoming passenger lists for me to hopefully give us some more information.

I can't find a birth for your grandfather so I am thinking he was not born in the UK.

I am going to try and find his death which at least will give us his age.

Kirsty.. whats with the Poooooooooooo ?
Sorry to be so vague, I dont know much about my dads side unfortunately...
I have my fathers uk passport, Born 1st August 1929 in AHAMADABAD.
I was told a long time ago that my father came over to UK with his brothers and sisters when he was 10 and lived at an address near Twickenham.
Family gossip is that my grandfather served in the British Army in India { we have a British Army medal, inscribed on the side; Lance Corporal P R PENMAN. Bombay Railway }
We think that, possibly, whilst he served there he married an Indian lady, I do not have any details on her at all.
Regards
Martin.....
