    Darwood, W.

    Thank you one and all for your help. I had checked 1901 and 1911census also 1921 before posting this request. I am 90% certain I have the right Darwood family but proof of them living at 395 Farm St. in 1903 would make it 100%. Peter

    Darwood, W.

    Hi Alberta, Thank you for the info. I had looked at 81, 91 and 01 census (also 1911 for Sarah & daughters) and believed them to be for the Derwood's I was looking for (although 91 with George ? but this must be an error). My reason for asking about 395 Farm St. around 1903/4 would confirm for...

    Chamberlain, G.

    If the baptism is the correct one it would seem to tie up (although a bit complecated) but still need to find him on 1901 and 1911 census.

    Chamberlain, G.

    Thanks for the above info and I assume this is based on the baptism details I found and that they are in fact (the baptism record) for the George Chamberlain I need. I also have an address (1918 about) 23 Bromsgrove street, Kidderminster. Peter

    Chamberlain, G.

    Hi, I know some of you like a challenge so this post re George Chamberlain, born 1887 Kidderminster. No census records found for 1891, 1901 or 1911 for George (why?). We find him on 1939 register (plus wife and son). What is known about George is that he married Violet Maud Walker 1908, during...

    Thomas and AliceHill

    Thanks Janice. I did find the 1920 Electoral roll and also 1925 and 1930 with same address but was not 100% certain I had the right couple however it must be them. If Alice was alone on the 1935 roll this would confirm it because I believe Thomas died early (jan?) 1935. Have not found Alice on...
