Sydney Charles Frost married Elsie Mary O`Donoghue in 1947. This was her second marriage, the first being to John O`Donoghue in 1936. I have no infirmation on him not even his birth or death. But they did have a daughter Mary Theresa born 1937 who married Ronald West in 1957. So far no information on Ronald. They did have at least one daughter Dawn West in 1961. Elsie Mary`s maiden name was Kear and she was born in 1917 a Chepstow registration, mothers maiden name was Williams.

At the moment it does not look like Sydney and Elsie had any children. Thanks for all the help given, the search goes on.

Don't think it's a typo- also appears on Electoral register from at least 1950- 1957 as Sidney F, before changing to Sidney C

Pam


I advised you to look for Frost/West marriages

Looking for Sydney's siblings is pointless, unless you plan to follow-through on them and hope that their descendants can answer your query

Of course, if there was no marriage, and the 'son in law' was only living with the daughter...............you're a bit stuck

The same applies if the daughter had married more than once

Googling the address for Sydney it is a flat in a block

Again a look at the electoral rolls may give who lived there too

If all else fails you may need to check on the electoral rolls for the r west address to see who else lived there .

These aren't online though but would be held at the main library for the area

Have you looked for a marriage for him

There looks a possible in 1940 to a Busby and is one daughter and one son to that marriage in the same reg district

Sure the surname is West? Not seeing any marriages for a Frost to and R West.
