Thank you very much Maureen you are a star, that is interesting,& to know his trade,
I found his birth in Free BMD, looks like he may have had a sister.

I have also found Basil Willoughby Brennan, parents marriage 1912 William Brennan & Elsie Ella Rose Dunning Hackney London, is it possible for someone to look it up?

I couldn’t find any children of Basil & Jeanne Olive, all I know is what a gt aunt told me that was a “Yank“!,
I wonder if he did ever live with his wife! I thought at first he may have died in the war, I didn’t find him in the
CWGC [war graves ], now I know he died in 1968.

Thank you again Maureen.

Hi Chris Ho
Thank you for looking for the 1911 census that was good of you, that confirms that it is not him, & that is a big help I wonder why when I looked at the index it came up with IOW?? I think my Charles must have died in South Africa, on his "Army Service Records, Attestation soldier number: 99"? would you know if that is his service number ? It is a bit short
Thank you again
Ann

Thank you very much Chris Ho, I rather suspected he may have been in the Hampshire Regiment.
Are you saying he was from Hertford & the info I found on the 1911 census site Index said
“POOLE CHARLES M 1877 34 Islington London. Birth Year 1875 Birth Year+/-2 years Marriage Year 1905 Birth Place IOW Head “ is wrong?

If Scrope & Eliza lost a child I would thought it would have been Charles, I did try to see if he was listed in the London Gazette casualties, but had problem on the site.
Thank you again,
Ann

I have has a good look for the death of Charles & Earnest I haven’t found them, is it possible for someone to look for them
In the 1911 census listed above, it might eliminate one of them.
I see from the index Scrope the father left a will !
Thank you,
Ann
PS, there were 2 Ernest born on IOW
1878 POOLE Ernest Arthur, Ryde & 1879 POOLE Ernest George, Ryde this is the one I am after in GR 1911 it looks like he is in Hereford
I cant see Charles in GR 1911,

Prickly Holly Thank you so much, that is wonderful,
I see that Scrope & Eliza had “ 7 children born, 6 living” so the one that died
might have been Charles? As he was in the WW1 I have a copy of a letter sent home to his family [no other info, but I have been unable to find his death in the CWGC [war graves] unless it was Ernest? I will have a look for him.
thank you,
Ann
