It looks very much as if he changed his name . Did he have children with lily ? he may not have wanted to surport them so did a name change .

No chance of finding him if so .!

I see what you mean - not a trace. Maybe he emigrated? Did think about this one but how likely is it really!

EDITThere is a corresponding George Armson birth in Leics which I would say is him.

Name: George Armson
Birth Date: abt 1888
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1962
Age at Death: 74
Registration district: Leicestershire Central
Inferred County: Leicestershire
Volume: 3a
Page: 625

Researching:
Myatt, Hanks, Eccleston, Powell, Clungunford, Birmingham

Hi his name is George Harmson born 1886 in Sculcoates, Yorkshire, his father was George Harmson born York 1858 his mother Esther Harmson born York. The George who I am searching for (1886 birth) married Lily Curtis in 1912. This is the lady he deserted.

He served in the army during WW1 but survived it but shortly afterwards there was a big fall out and no one heard from him again.

Hope someone can push me in the right direction,

thanks

Have you asked about him before? If not, maybe if you post 1911 onto here folks might be able to come up with something.

I have been researching my family tree, specifically the surname Harmson on and off for over 20 years. However every time I try and find out anything more about one particular relative, the one everyone told me was the black sheep, I draw a blank. I have him on the 1911 census and see he married (then from family he deserted the family just after the WW1). There I draw a total blank. No death record for him in this country and have looked at America and Canada but nothing there either. I am frustrated as don't know what to do next.

Can anyone offer any suggestions

Thanks

Carol
