Welcome to the boards, Lorraine.

Have you tried looking on free bmd for more accurate birth and parent information?

Between 1940 and 1950 there are only two births for Edward Thomas born in Bristol area. One mother is Smith the other is Grimes.

Do you know anything about 'Monty' - approximate date or place of birth, and possible other names (Montgomery? Montague?)

There's an Edward Thomas mmn Hunt birth in 1944 but not in the Bristol area,

hi one Edward Thomas living in Bristol electoral roll no age given

And that 1944 birth does not appear to have a father Monty.

Seeing as you have an address, your best bet is to look at old electoral rolls at the library closest to Whiteladies Rd. This means you can confirm names.

I have told Lorraine how to find her replies.

Thank you for replys all the info I have is what is in my first message. I no nothing else.

How did you find out that his Mother's maiden name was Hunt?

Don't no ,I haven't been on here for a while . When I looked at my tree the name Hunt was on it as the partner of Monty Thomas.

Sorry, I do not understand.

Do you mean that you have got in your tree Ms Hunt as married/partner to Monty Thomas, but you cannot remember where you got this information from?

Lorraine you have Monty as born 1920, was that just a guess?

If the mmn is Hunt on your tree then you must have put it on because no one can add to your tree

Where did you get the name Hunt from ?

Is your mum able to give you any more info . Or any other family member

You may have to look at old electoral rolls to see who was listed at the address at the time

Or if you think that death for many is the right one then the informant on the cert could be family
