Yes please Emeltee. I did not think that would be available.

Many thank. Much appreciated.

As first time on here this year a Hippy Nude Year, err, I mean Happy New Year to one n' all. :D I am trying to find the below on the 1911 Census without success. George William Joslin. Born, 1875, Hadliegh Hamlet, Suffolk. (Probably at Boxford. Awaiting certificate) He died 1949 in Carshalton...

Hippy Nude Year, err, Happy New Year to one and all. :2fun: Happy Family Hunting. :D

Take one 2004 Piaggio Beverly B125 Scooter. Ride to farm well out in the sticks. Purchase one dozen extra large new laid (collected that morning) eggs. Put eggs in rear box with heavy duty disc lock and bag of tools. Ride home through country lanes and B roads with many pot holes. Open box and...

Thanks Emeltee, I will give them a try.

Just got this Death Certificate. It says he was "Chief Superintendent Metropolitan Police." Now to see if I can follow that up.

Be careful with the supposed facts of certificates. I have just got the death certificate of my grandmother, Rose Blizzard, nee Lake. She died 24th January 1961 at 5 Gifford Street, Islington, London. But it has "Widow of William Robert Blizzard a Chimney Sweep" Only partly right. She was the...

3 days in the trenches and I would be in need of undiluted alcohol. :D

Thanks Peter. I thought with a brand and strength I might have a taste of yesteryear. :) I guess it was the cheapest HMG could purchase.

What brand of rum did the British Army issue in the first world war? :D

Many thanks Peter. All information most welcome.

Death certificate ordered. I will wait till that arrives and take it from there. Once I have that will contact the Met. There seems to be no end of false family stories. One person born in Scotland, was in fact born in St Pancras, London. Person I was told came to Camden Town with the Welsh...

Thanks Emeltee, It would not be the first wishful thinking story I have come across. I will try the Met and sending for his death certificate now.

Many thanks, both helpful replies. Before retirement I am told Henry Arber was chief constable at Dartford Police Station, but not got any proof of that. I know he lived at Meopham, Kent when he died.

Any info from the 1911 on Henry Norman Arber is most welcome. Family Search gives a few details: Henry Arber. Head. Male. Born, Stoke Newington. 16 St Albans Place, Upper Street, Islington. (Not sure where I got the address from) Married. Age, 34yr. Born, 1887. Occupation, Carman. I am looking...

Thank you for that Julie, I will follow that up.
