Looking for Richard Smith cousin of Mark Curteis on mothers side. Auntie Elsie Smith married Edward Curteis and lived in Islington and Richard also lived in this area until about 1986. I contacted Richard some years ago but have lost touch and Mark his cousin would like to get in touch,

When was he born?

For some idea of time-scale.............!

Richard must be at least 80 years old by now...................

Having checked the ER, I doubt that the 2004 death cert would help.................Elsie and Edward's son was living in the same house, and would undoubtedly have registered his mother's death.

Hi Reggie, yes have tried to find him as I said he contacted me in 2007 and said that he was related to my cousin Mark Curteis on his mothers side (Elsie Smith ) who married my uncle Edward Morris Curteis. I had an email address but he has changed it and Mark would like to meet up with him. The last time I heard from him he was in Marlsham, Suffolk.
Thanks for your help

I took it that you were saying that Richard was Elsie's son......................are you now saying that he was/is Elsie's NEPHEW?
