hi im asking any one please for any infromation. My grandad was married to a lady i dont know who she was i have knowledge that they had a child he then spilt up with this lady and had four more children i was wondering if anyone has a granddad called Walter Ernest cole or know who he was married too he was orphaned at the aged of 6 and went in to the army at 16 if anyone know any infromation please get in contact im looking for a half sister or brother to my mum

Can you guess an approximate birth year, or do you know when and where he died?
Or which marriage do you know about, for area etc?
Have you got your Mother's birth certificate for her Mother's name?
Thanks

Hi Rebecca You havnt given his birth or where he lived ? More info p;Lease

my grandfather was born 4/11/1906 in portsmouth his mother and father died when he was six he then joined the army at 16 he died on the 1/1/1960. He lived in london but before he had my mother he was married to a previous lady and they had a child they then spilt or she may have died. This is the lady im trying to find i found one lady called ada j smith but i dont know if this is the write lady or not he would have been 19 but im not sure if this is him

walter Ernest cole was married to a lady not sure who before he meet my grandmother they never married

When did he meet your grandmother (so his first wedding must have been before this?
Thanks

he meet my grandmother emm in 1941 maybe a little bit early as my uncle was born then

If you got the marriage certificate of Walter and Ada it would have his father's name on it. If wrong name for Father, not correct marriage certificate.
Presumably you guessed Ada because Islington is about the right area?

Marriages Sep 1925
Cole Walter E Smith Islington 1b 756
SMITH Ada J Cole Islington 1b 756

well i think so im not too sure becasue when he meet my nan he was living in paddington but would his father name still be on if they died when he was six and how do i get this marrige certifacate.

and ive been trying to find ada j smith or some family but i dont know alot about their realtionship if they she was older younger or how long they where married for my grandfather was a soilder in ww2 but im not too sur how to use this

There is no birth registration for a Walter Ernest Cole in Portsmouth in 1906?

Would it be 1909??
