Find Ancestors

nudge... sorry

Hi all, Today ive been searching through ancestry and im coming across loads of pumfretts born in west ham its confused me as dont know whether they would be related to my nans uncle or not. Ive noted them all down, even some marriages as they might be related but how do i find out as alot of them dont have Mmn name on them if they are related to my nan? Jo

Ann, I just been looking at the 3 Albert Arthur Pumfretts and yes we have my nans uncle there born 1914 and i thought maybe we have his Dad and Grandad aswell but looking at dates again im not sure now as the 3rd Albert was born 1903 so i doubt very much thats the dad as only 11 years difference but the 2nd might be the Dad or the Grandad even. Alberts Mum was called Rosamelia and my nan thinks she was born in Ireland, not sure about that and also Alberts siblings are Alfred, Harry and Rose evelyn, who was my great nanny. Heres the 3 that you found again so you can see what i mean by the dates. Albert A Pumfrett 1914 Jan-Feb-Mar (Mmn Parks) West Ham Essex, Greater London Albert Arthur Pumfrett 1879 Oct-Nov-Dec West Ham Essex, Greater London Albert Arthur J Pumfrett 1903 Jan-Feb-Mar West Ham Essex, Greater London Jo

Hi Ann, Ok didnt know yet of any brothers and sisters but thankyou for finding the brother for me and yes ive spotted the other Albert arthur Pumfretts aswell and found it strange they all born in West ham aswell but my nan did say she dont know Arthurs dads name and that he died she thinks when he was 42 so maybe the other Arthurs are the father and grandad. Thanx again Jo

Do be very careful - there seems to be a selection of them Albert A Pumfrett 1914 Jan-Feb-Mar (Mmn Parks) West Ham Essex, Greater London Albert Arthur Pumfrett 1879 Oct-Nov-Dec West Ham Essex, Greater London Albert Arthur J Pumfrett 1903 Jan-Feb-Mar West Ham Essex, Greater London ...and thats just West Ham

Here he is: http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2211285 The search facility on that site's a bit odd - you have to put his surname and first initial, not his full Christian names, otherwise his name won't come up.

Janice, Thankyou so much for your searching for me, your very kind along with everyone else thats helping. Im noteing this all down awww my little nan will be pleased. jo
