Hi Shirley.....he died in Stirling, Scotland. His death certificate is on Scotlands people website which gives death certificates which are over 50 years old and these include parents names.

His service record lists his mother as Martha Ridgeway of Thornborough - Did she remarry?

Hi...I am trying to find info on the parents of William John Dormer who was born approx 1872 in Thornborough, Buckinghamshire. His marriage and death certificates say his father was called Joseph Dormer and mother Martha Beasley ?...but I cannot find any record of their marriage or any census records showing them all together.
