I am hoping to find any relatives belonging to my Grandfather Arthur Edward Window. He died in 1945 aged 57 . He married my Grandmother kate in 1915 but later divorced, then married Frances L Gill 1940. He had a brother Albert born 1890, and sisters Ivy born 1904, Violet born 1901 and may born 1908. There may have been another brother or sister.

Have you looked for marriages for the sisters, and the births of any children by using free bmd?

Are you looking for any children and grandchildren from his other marriage?

Have you got the family in your tree on here?

It helps to know where you have looked before we make any suggestions.

You would undoubtedly find it would aid your research to get the full names of Arthur's siblings


For example:

Births Sep 1903 (>99%)
Window Ivy Louisa Bristol 6a 223

WINDOW IVY L 1903 1912 1912 Deaths & burials Bristol, Gloucestershire, England


Use freebmd to find the others

Have you done any research on the siblings?
