Member Since: December 2009 Posts: 29 Send Message	I will try and get a marriage and death certificate, I am not too sure if his parents remarried? his father what i can gather didn't treat his mum very well. I asked james if he had any brothers/sisters and he said yes but his father denied that he was the father to them? James wouldn't have a bad name said against his mother.

	By the look of it his father remarried also a thought is that his mother could of previously been married. If you purchase the marraige cert between Mauade and Oscar this should give fathers name for both of them they cost £7 from the link below. Also the death cert for Alberts Grandfather Oscar Elijah and father will give the informents name http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/ England & Wales, Marriage Index: 1916-2005 about Oscar W J Law Name: Oscar W J Law Spouse Surname: Harradence Date of Registration: Apr-May-Jun 1960 Registration district: Bishop Stortford Registration county (inferred): Hertfordshire Volume Number: 4b Page Number: 45 Find Spouse: Find Spouse --------------------------------------------- England & Wales, Marriage Index: 1916-2005 about Daisy A Harradence Name: Daisy A Harradence Spouse Surname: Law Date of Registration: Apr-May-Jun 1960 Registration district: Bishop Stortford Registration county (inferred): Hertfordshire Volume Number: 4b Page Number: 45 Find Spouse: Find Spouse

Member Since: December 2009 Posts: 29 Send Message	Thank you for all your help... I need it....James mentions the Warren cottage being thatched and standing on its own next to a church? but knowing James it probably wasn't thatched and was in a middle of a Town. We've got our work cut out.
Member Since: February 2004 Posts: 2,571 Send Message	Clitheroelass	Report	15 Feb 2010 23:23
