Hi looking for Robert Edward Curtis, born in 1935 in Aldershot to Florence and Frank Curtis. He had a brother called Henry J F Curtis and a sister Dorothy A Curtis (may have changed name when married). He married Ann Cable in 1965 in Southampton ........ emigrated but unsure where - could be the States, understand he has three children - a boy and two girls, looking to reunite him with an old friend, please can anyone help?

Unfortunately online passenger records cease at 1960. Conseqently it isn't possible to search them to see where he went. There are far to many Robert E Curtis listed in online US records to decide if anyone are correct.

Ann's name on the marriage index looks as if she was also known as Branery A Cable. Have you thought of following through with her to see if she had any siblings?
Assuming they are the same person, 'Ann' was born in 1940. It looks as if she had 4 siblings 1930-1947, all in the Southampton reg district.

That elder daughter does appear to be on facebook.

Caroline,
Are you sure of the marriage in Southampton, or did he divorce?
