This is great a fantastic start.....thank you so much!

I had assumed that Harry was previously married as he was a widower when he married my nan (on marriage cert) and there was a big age gap, Harry was 48 and Stella was 27.

Where his first wife Kathleen Burt is listed above would you know what "female unpaid domestic duties" mean?? Surely he didn't marry her for domestic duties? If this is the case I can see a pattern here....... one thing I remember my dad/uncle saying was that he met my nan as she used to clean for him :-S

A couple of years ago I gave up looking for my grandfather, just kept hitting brick walls! For the last few days something has been telling me to continue which I have and happy to say I found out something today I didn't know. There is a huge chuck of time in which I cannot find anything for him, sadly my dad has passed and there is nobody else that I can ask for info (my grandfather died when my dad was 13 so he didn't know much. This is what I have so far:

HARRY BURT born 28/02/1897 80 Kingsdown Road Islington

Parents: Geroge Burt & Mary Burt formally Allen

1901 Census shows him living at home at 25 Scholefield Road Islington

On 9/8/1911 Harry enrolled on the TS Exmouth Training Ship (Found this out today!)

He was discharged on 22/10/1912

THEN THERE IS NOTHING

Until he marries my nan on the 11/08/1945 My nan was born Stella Lally on 25/05/1918

However, I have the marriage cert for them and she is listed as Stella L Stone (which is my uncles surname due to different dads) but there is no marriage cert for Stella Marrying a Stone

Then Harry dies on the 18/03/1966 living at 287 The Glade, Croydon.

Can ANYONE help me find harry between 1912 and 1945? I don't know why I am feeling that I have to keep looking but I jus don't know where he was.
