Thanks all for your input. Peter

The only birth (1884) I have found is for James Alfred Quiney. I had seen the marriage for Leonard Osborne Wigley and Edith Flanders and that Edith died in 1981 and so assumed Leonard and Jessie were not married (legally anyway). Jessie Alice Quiney died June Q. 1971 aged 76. Peter

Yes James, b. Birmingham aged 24 (serving with 4th Bn W R) is on that 1911 census. Man above him is named Queeney (Thomas). Also have 1939 Register for wife Jessie and 2 of her daughters but under surname Wigley, living at 65 Moor End Lane, Erdington with a Leonard O. Wigley (both shown as...

Hi Lyn & Janice Did see 1944 death but think it most unlikely. 1911 census serving in the Army (James Quiney). 1921 census under (transcribed) surname name Luiney. Don't have any info on parents. Peter

James Albert Quiney b. 1887 (abt) Birmingham. Have not been able to find birth or death record for James. Have 1911 and 1921 census for him and marriage details (m. Jessie Alice Jackson June Q. 1914). A marriage record for his daughter (Edith Quiney) 24.9.1938 states father deceased. Why no...

Yes Janice that's the one I have (birth). I had his railway employment record and the date he absconded fits in with him enlisting in the Militia (same date 22.02.1897). Served 49 days with Militia and to the Worcesters (14.04.1897). He enlisted under own name (second time under an alias) so not...

Yes Janice that's him. I think I have him sorted now but it's a bit messy. Wondered why he enlisted under an alias but now I think I know why. b. 8th July 1879 St. Pancras, London, parents Thomas and Ann (Annie) Morris. Aged 15 Van boy (railway). His father was also employed with railway...

Janice Army number 12296. Yes he should be on 1911 census as serving in the Army but I've had no luck finding him. Peter

Many thanks Janice. So used part of both names on 1921 census Frank (real name) Price (alias). Peter

Yes I have it thanks Janice Still searching 27 Chapel St. but a complete dead end, nothing. Peter

Thanks Janice. Don't know why I couldn't find him on 39 Reg. put in name Frank Morris and address 74 Flewitt St., Nothing. If born 1879 then info on Pension record out by 5 years. He enlisted in 1909 so would have been about 30 (maybe he took 5 years of his age then when enlisting?) Peter

Hi Janice No date to go on (1st address) and no next of kin mentioned on Pension records. Only other helpful info year of birth (1874) and the fact he was single. Thanks for the info you have found so far (if marriage above right then married before, so between 1916 and 1927). Peter

Frederick Price (alias) b. 1874 abt. (?) served under the name Frederick Price but real name Frank Morris. Was discharged 1916 (sickness). Have 2 address's for him but having trouble finding him. Address 1, 27 Chapel St., High St., Tipton and 2nd 74 Flewitt St., Alfred St. South, Nottingham...
