Bit odd though... the war was over by 1946 and HMS Pembroke was a shore base at Eastchurch near Chatham in Kent. How could he be Commonwealth War Dead? |

Thankyou so much guys. I have my grandfathers birth certificate which says that his father Sidney Charles Aylett was a petty officer so this must be him thanks so much |

Do you know when they died at all? If you can find the deaths you will get an age which will help. Rose |

A freebmd search shows more than one possible matches for Gertrude within a few years of possible birth date. If you are sure that she married Sidney, it might be better to find the marriage, so that you will hopefully have her father's name as a checking point, as well as her age. Gwyn |

Hi What exactly is it you are looking for? You would be better off starting with her death - this will give you her age so at least you will have a better idea of where she was born. Did she marry just the once in which case her death should be registered under Aylett? Have you searched the complete BMD indexes on Ancestry? the problem is that with no idea of when or where she died, it would be a mammoth task and would be like looking for a needle in a haystack! You could look for her marriage and when you get the marriage certificate, that too will have her age on it and give a clue to when she was born. Start from when the first child was born and work backwards Sam x |

hey im looking for a getrude lilian cooper i think she would have been born around 1901 ish. I dont really know where she wuold have been born apart from the fact that her 2 children Gordon and Gloria were born in medway Kent. I know that she was married to a man named Sidney Charles Aylett but i dont really know much about him either but i feel he may have been born around the same time as her. Any info or guesses would be gratefully appreciated. I have tried looking on ancestry but i have had no luck. I may be doing it wrong or something im not to sure. But thanks anyway |
