Chippenham may not be the place of death but the main named office that the death came under,


a death from that time will be listed as Newcastle upon Tyne but actually took place in the surrounding area of about a 15 mile radious.....

Edit----Chippenham is also the registered place of the 1939 birth------..

Yes I have been through all the siblings and been researching 7 years and not much further forward really. I have tried various trees all nothing. My dad does not know who his father was its Carter on birth certificate but we have no photo nothing no information. He could be Arthur tidd child there is resemblance. This secret was taken to the grave. Every door I open closes thanks for looking

Thomas (above ) appears to have been in WW1 and records of his service are online,,a number of pages mapping his movements from 1915 to 1919,,,,,overseas incluced he was in RFA,,,,,,,and included is a letter asking the army for any news of Thomas whic may have been written and signed by Arthur Carter ( his father)?from Lea Malmesbury.

it maybe worth getting them to file away.....also 1901 and 1911 census should make him easier to find with Arthur.....

1901 census is on page one of this thread

Jane.................

You need to invest in some certs.

You can't do this sort of search any other way
