Found this could it be connected.??

1891 West Battersea D58 18 5,Dulka road.
James Kiranas (looks like Kurrias on original) 1857 born Strand London Printer in echo office
Kate 1858 Fulham music teacher
Fred born Battersea says 8 but could be 6
Kate 10 Battersea
Sidney 4 Battersea.

Can't check out anything else as I'am not sure of surname.
I thought if Kate had remarried then this may have been her.

Yes have seen these entries - Have had trouble tracking down White Star Line crew records - think some are held In Canada and a random amount were destroyed in 1960's

MarieCeleste Report 16 Nov 2011 21:51

Going back to Sidney working for the White Star Line, there are over a dozen arrivals in New York for a Sidney Martin working on the Homeric (a White Star ship) during 1922/23. Birth date 1888, nationality British. Because he's crew there isn't so much information.

There are also numerous other entries on other ships but haven't yet determined if it's the same man.

Yes have seen that census record and wondered if there was a connection - as yet have not found one - I think this family were in Compton at next census which is very close - not sure if one of son's could have changed name to Sidney and how one could find out :-S :-S

The will did not specify relationship to Frederick - referred to him as printers warehouseman

Gay, I'd be inclined to take your green tick off - there will be people later who do the "night shift" that may take a look at this. (If you go to the top of the thread there's a purple button to do so).

Have you got Sidney's will, where his relationship to Frederick may be specified?

That is problem it is quite a common name

Have checked birth records and I do not have any idea of area he came from. Also same with Seamens cards at Southampton & Kew

Worked on basis Frederick from Witley could be brother or cousin and have just received his marriage certficiate - married Alice Frye 1914 St John Baptist Church Byfleet - his address was Greenhills (barracks??) and his father was Frederick a clerk

They did have a daughter Freda born in 1915 (have been to Witley to trace her or anyone who knew her when they were there in 1950-60's without success

... I'm not seeing anything immediate in census records but will keep looking.

I'd certainly be inclined to order a copy of Frederick and Alice Sarah's marriage certificate to compare the father's details. Who were John and Freda?
