I'm trying to find out about my wife's Great Uncle Richard Ball born in Wandsworth 1896, my mother in law who is nearly 90 wants to find out if he married and had children and of course if they are still alive..

In 1911 aged 15 he was a factory hand and still living in Balham Wandsworth
London or Middlesex as it was then called.

Any help will be gratefully received.

There is a tree on Ancestry.. it doesn't state his parents, but does say born London and married Martha Wheeler in Kingston 1918.

maybe worth contacting the tree owner???

Try looking for possible births on freebmd.....once you establish that the marriage is for the correct man
