okay that's good. Thanks.

If anyone could help me with Alfred L Dickens' death or their divorce or whatever because I don't know what happened and he is my biological G Grandfather I think, my Mother always heard him be called Leslie. He may have died in Hampshire, if he died at all..
Cant really find a Birth ether, but perhaps a 1911 one I found in Brentford[close to Brent/Willesden I guess].

1911 Alfred?

You do need to check this out with Alfred junior's marriage certificate for name and occupation of father, and possibly Alfred junior's age;

Thanks, sounds interesting...didn't know he was still alive in 1999...be interesting to see if he remarried etc..

If Bessie remarried, then I'm wondering if Alfred also remarried?

Can't see any children for the marriage

Births Mar 1939 (>99%)
Dickens Irene E James Brentford 3a 423

Think I found a DOB for my Grandmother, and place...I know she died early this year, or late last year...can you look up that recent deaths online?

If that's your Grandmother, then these must be her siblings?

This would fit with the marriage I found and info posted by Kucinta:-

Marriages Jun 1937 (>99%)
Hills Cissie M Passmore Essex S.W. 4a 805
Passmore Leonard A Hills Essex S.W. 4a 805

so looks as though Cissie was probably born Hills and became Passmore when she married Leonard.


possible?
Births Dec 1918 (98%)
Hills Cissie M Wood West Ham 4a 633

Thankyou, yup those were my Grandmother's siblings, I am in contact with one, the other I think is probably dead...

Death that ties in with the 1918 birth for Cissie M Hills, that Catherine posted:

Name: Cissie Maisie Dickens
Birth Date: 31 Oct 1918
Date of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep 1978
Age at Death: 59

Thankyou, Am now trying to find a death for Florence Dickens nee Johnson, non of the ones I have seen seem to add up age wise...can anyone do any better than me?
I have no idea if she remarried, but assume she died a dickens, and as for her husband, cannot find his death either..

Florence was born 1890 Paddington
Alfred born 1891 Hendon or Acton, Middxx

Birth: JAMES Bessie E Williamson Willesden 3a 635 mar 1915
Is there any way to find out more about this birth now? I cannot find it on bmd.

it's on freebmd.org.uk

here's the quick link, you would need to order the cert from www.gro.gov.uk to read and check the details match, it may also confirm what the E stands for

Hi guys,
Still trying to go back further with my Great Gran, whilst trying to find her parents on a census I somehow led myself onto a Williamson family in Kent and knowing she at least and her Mother came from London I am not exactly sure I was correct with that, I have found that I will be given a letter written by Elizabeth, my Great Grans Mum that talks about her life in Willesden, so that should be interesting, my Dad says he knows nothing, and still waiting to hear anything about this side of my family from the one person I do know kinda, in Canada. Any help anyone here could give me to go back further into my Great Grans Mums family[for now.] would be appreciated.
This is what I know so far from your guys help and my own research:

Died Betty Evelyn Cant in 1998 in Southampton.

I have a feeling that perhaps both the Williamsons and the James families were gypsies..I have tried to find her parents and grandparents, sometimes i find matching names an dates[some naming some as travelers], other years I dont find them in the census....so confusing.

Any chance anyone could look up this census record for me? I cant view it for some reason, even tho I have credits.
