Find Ancestors

Martyn,

This looks to be a rather complicated trail.

I cannot spot a Gladys Chinn travelling from Frankfurt but by then (1948) Floyd Burtchett Snr would have been married to Jean Crump.

Very unlikely that Gladys Chinn would have in the US army as she was British but of course she might have been seconded to US military in some capacity in 1945 when Floyd Jnr was conceived.

I may have discovered a bit more about Floyd Snr., do you know if he had a second forename and out of curiosity what was Floyd Jnr's second name?

i think it was franklin

Floyd Franklin Burtchett born America 1897- 1959 married to Gladys C Pond born America 1896 -1985.
This guy was a Proffessor of banking and finance among other things.
He was also a military advisor in WW11.
Widow Gladys when he died in 1959.
He was in Biaritz france 1945-6.

Could there be 2 of that name??

i have no idea ,the lady is going to ring the female who may be his daughter born 1947,
will keep you posted,

thank you for your input,the more the merrier.

gladys c pond is not the gladys i was looking for,

i bet he was a naughty boy in ww2,
away from home and all that if it is him.

Just been reading items written on google etc by the lady born 1947 it certainly looks like the same guy as she names Gladys C Pond's mum among her searches.
He looks to have had another daughter brought up by grandparents in Minisota.

seem's he may have had children all over the place.

thank you for all the info jonesey,
i will show it to the lady,she was going to ring the lady born 1947,i saw a old post on google from her asking about her father floyd in california,i think it could well be floyd 1946 half sister,
i will post again when i have spoken to her.

hi ,
the lady has got the key's to her cousins house,her son had to go because social services were waiting to get their bed back.
she is going to get a undertaker to sort out his burial ,then all paper's will be collected together and brought back,
i think they will get someone to come and clear the house out.
she said she feel's duty bound to bury him as he was her cousin and she would not feel comfortable just leaving thing's to whoever.

thank you for all your help in her quest to see if he had any sibling's.

Martyn, I am acquainted with some of the individuals that you name in this post. Please make further contact with some proof of your authenticity and relationship to the individuals concerned.

St David.

I need to know if Floyd f burtchett married in 1967 got divorced from his wife or did they just separate.

Martyn - that's too recent for anyone to have access to such records. Sorry.

thank you marie
