Marriage
George H Oliver
Clara M Harris
Liskeard 5c 98

Could he have changed his name around and Clara been known by her second name?

Im dont think thats right because George was the oldest of the three children and was born in 1917. Sorry that you hit a dead end.

Actually I just found out that the children the children were born between 1900 and 1917. George Oliver married Rosa Oliver 1944 in barnstaple. George was my father and he was born in 1917.

This is like trying to pull teeth!
Julie, your father's name and year of birth?

Julie

Julie Report 16 Aug 2011 14:23

I'm sure that Herbert Oliver will be in the 1911 census and will give you some info. Sorry about the emo's. :-D

I know that Truro is a place not a person.
Evidently one of the 3 children was your father. Don't you have a closer year of birth than 1910-1930?

Julie

Julie Report 16 Aug 2011 14:13

Truro was NOT a PERSON, it was near where Herbert George was BORN. :-S

Julie

Julie Report 16 Aug 2011 14:12

I am terribly sorry but all I knowis their names were Joan, Guy and George. they were all born at different times. I think that they were born 1910 to 1930 ish. :-\

I can't even see a marriage to a May for him.....where & when was the children born

MargaretM

MargaretM Report 16 Aug 2011 14:07

Children?

Julie

Julie Report 16 Aug 2011 14:05

His wifes first name was May and some of his relatives near tintagel and looe.

Julie

Julie Report 16 Aug 2011 13:59

Julie...you need to give more info as that at the moment that is the only Herbert coming up that ties in with what you have said

MargaretM

MargaretM Report 16 Aug 2011 13:57

I'm just saying that the one born 1879, Truro died that year, so he's evidently not your Herbert George. Do you have yours on any census? What about his wife? First name or last name May? I can't find the marriage. And again, children born when and where?

p.s. Could do without the emoticon with its tongue sticking out, I'm just trying to help.

Julie

Julie Report 16 Aug 2011 13:54

well herbert did not die in 1879 because he married, had three kids and dissapered :-P

MargaretM

MargaretM Report 16 Aug 2011 13:53

When and where were the 3 children born?

Julie

Julie Report 16 Aug 2011 13:48
