Wellington R Grigson born 1903 was the son of Frank and Rosina………just to save anyone following that one. ;-) ;-)

His birth registration records his first name as WELLINGTON

The Royal Victoria was a military mental hospital. So presumably he was still in the army ( medical corps?)

Am having difficulty tracking down the above Willington George Richard Grigson b 1863 Hackney area, known as George

I have him in 1871 with father Adolphus Grigson and family in Stanley Road, Finsbury, London.

He joined army - 97th Foot Soldiers in 1877 but not sure when he got discharged

Marries Sarah GArdner in St Pancras area in 1891

He reappears in 1901 census as a Hospital Nurse at Royal Victoria Hospital, South Stoneham, , , whilst wife Sarah is in Geldstone Road, Hackney.

Cannot find either of then 1881 or 1891 (I presume Army duties) nor 1911 census onwards.

Although born with first name Willington, usually goes by George !!

No known children that I can find, too.

Any help welcome


I have tried Ancestry, GRO & FreeBMD.
