As Katie is a new member......I will send her a PM in case she doesn't know how to return to this thread.

Even though you say it's the wrong one.......

Please can you give us the information from the Birth cert you have.

Prickles. :-)

There are two other Crann births in Marylebone that I thought I would check out on the 1911 census.

Unfortunately they both died in infancy.


Births Sep 1908 (>99%)
Crann Rose Alice E Marylebone 1a 472

Deaths Dec 1908 (>99%)
CRANN Rose Alice E 0 Paddington 1a 27


Births Dec 1909 (>99%)
CRANN George Henry Marylebone 1a 448


Deaths Dec 1909 (>99%)
CRANN George Henry 0 Marylebone 1a 336

I can't see a medal card for Henry Crann, if he served in WW1 he would have had one

Frederick could have made up his fathers details for the marriage? His DOB may or may not be correct, the information given by the informant of his death may not have given the correct details

Hi Katie and welcome to the boards.

Is this the birth cert you ordered.....


Births Jun 1911 (>99%)
Crann Frederick W Marylebone 1a 449

Hi Katie

Could you post the details of the witnesses and the address on the marriage certificate please

:-)

My grandfather Frederick William Crann born 14th April 1911 died August 1991 (where exact DOB came from) married my grandmother Elsie Frances Cooper 24th December 1929 at the register office St Marylebone, London.

He is too young to be on the 1911 census, his marriage certificate states that his father is Henry Crann (deceased) Stoker RN and he is a private 106911854 in the rifle brigade.

I can't find his birth (ordered a St Marylebone birth certificate and didn't have the right DOB, father's name or occupation on) also can't find his father on the 1911 census or his fathers death.

It is rumoured that Crann may have been a stepfathers surname but I am unable to find out anymore information as my mother has Alzheimer's.

Can anyone help point me in the right direction?

Thanks
