Find Ancestors

Working your tree back from what you definitely know will help the queries slot into place, or not.

One should always recheck information given to you by family. History gets distorted.

Kenneth 1948 and his father was Walter mother was Nee Kelly

NO birth on freebmd matching that info

NO marriage anywhere in England/Wales for Walter Hall to a woman with surname Kelly

Have you any documentary backup? Have you looked for any info anywhere?

The surname for Kenneth is GLAISTER. How on earth does that connect with HALL?

You asked on here - in another thread - for help regarding Walter GLAISTER

I think you’ve got your wires crossed ;-) ;-) ;-)

Please tell us which HALL individual is DEFINITELY your connection.

OK.........done some research

Kenneth Glaister married RUTH M HALL in 1980, so logic dictates that she is the connection.

No birth in Whitehaven district for Ruth M Hall, and no way of finding parentage until Pauline comes back with - hopefully - some facts.

If she wasn’t born in the area, one wonders how she links to Henry Hall born 1917……IF she does.

Perhaps we need to be careful what we post about this man.

He and Ruth , with two adult children, were living in Whitehaven in 2013, per ER, and there's no record of their deaths, up to 2022 at least.

Going by ER and FreeBMD, Ruth was probably born 1958.

[Deleted wrong info re parents, etc, which were for a different Ruth M Hall, also born 1958.]

I deliberately gave minimal info, in view of the man's birth year.

Yes - just a general remark, not aimed at you, ErikaH.
I know you know better!

Iwill get in touch with a son be back on board later thank you

Thanks AG. I didn’t think you were :-) :-)

Ruth M Hall was born in 1958.

(I was previously guessing at a different Ruth M Hall in 1958, so have deleted wrong info about parents/grandparents.)

yes sorry was rushing it Hall

Henry was NOT - as I have said before - the son of William Joseph.

His father was HENRY - as per 1921 census info.

Thank you everyone
I got there finally
