STILL looking for the Burgess family in the Basildon Area......anyone know of them, theres quite a few judging by the number of siblings, originally from the Paddington, London area....great grandparents were Charles Edward Burgess and Sarah Ann Mitchell, I knew her as Annie, sadly both deceased. Any help greatly appreciated. |

Hi, I would say roughly 1940s......my sister was born in 1941 and they were of similar age....she had 4 children 2 girls Tracey? 1961 ish, Sharon 1963 ish, Ricardo and Robert late 60s ...I seem to remember her husband went to prison for armed robbery...great eh....and thats as much as I can remember |

I said I hope she's not the right one because it implies she was also married to a Sinclair before that marriage which would be confusing! |

Thinking about this if I understand correctly and I may be wrong......but I think she married someone who died or went missing during the war, he may of been a GI, which I assume is Inggall and had a daughter Sandra. Lil then remarried someone alot younger than herself which I assume is Sinclair and had a son who I met once when he was in his early 20s so would have been born in the 1950s. Would that map in to the two last names....wish Id paid more attention during my childhood. |

Found an interesting marriage of Lilian M Burgess (I wonder if the N for her middle name is right?) to William H Sinclair apr-june 1949 Willesden it says her name is Sinclair or Inggall or Burgess! Hope she's not the right one ;-) |

Forgot about survival rates and think its more likely that Hildas dob is wrong.......thank you so much for your help. |

I've looked for any Healey/Burgess children and haven't found any yet. |

The birth date could be wrong it is given by the informant they may have not known.Your father could have been a prem baby but he must have been quite robust as I don't think the survival rate was very good back then. |

Athol certainly doesnt mean anything to me.....but interesting to note her birthday 21.1.1912.....my father Charles was 17.08.1912......I suppose my father could have been prem.??? Cld Hildas birth date be wrong???? My father married my mother in 1939....guess it happened alot at the beginning of the war? |
