Edward Pullin Grattidge
 

Edward was born in June 1866 in Tamworth Staffs parents Daniel Grattidge and Caroline Pullin.

1871 he is with parents in Tamworth
1881 still with parents in Tamworth

I can't find him 1891 or 1901 but there is a christening 1896 Altrincham Cheshire for Nora Grattidge parents Edward Pullin Grattidge and Florence Maud


Can anyone find him please

I have to go now back about 9

I found him married in 1891 with Florence :
Class: RG12; Piece: 3200; Folio 117; Page 35

They are transcribed as

Edward Guttridge 24 born Tamworth
Florance Guttridge 21 born Berssingham, Handsworth

In 1901 they are transcribed as follows:

Class: RG13; Piece: 3709; Folio: 20; Page: 31. Living in Lancashire Whalley Range St Margaret

Edward Gratlidge 34 born Tamworth occupation Grocer/dealer
Florance Gratlidge 30 born Banningham
Ketty Gratlidge 7 born Manchester Lancashire
Nora Gratlidge 4 born Sale Cheshire

:)

Thanks so much Joan. Now I need to find his marriage, did you look?

You're very welcome Pat

:)

There is this one on Free BMD :

December Q 1889
Fogg Florence Willia__ E St. Saviour 1d 322 xxxxxxxxxxxx No chance!!!!
Goodredge Edward St. Saviour 1d 32

Could that be likely?

EDIT : Florance was male lol!!!!!!!

:confused:

Florence's second name was Maud on the christening record

Florence Maud may have had the surname Wilks or Hanks as there are a couple of birth registrations in West Brom District (right for Handsworth) around 1868/1870 with the right first names. However, there doesn't seem to be any suitable marriages for either of these Florences in the right time period, or for Edward, so maybe their marriage didn't reach the GRO indexes, or maybe they were not actually married!

Thank goodness the cavalry has arrived lol! ;)

I am struggling to find a marriage too Merry. It doesn't help that there is a Florance marrying who seems to be a fella lol!

:d

Pat I am struggling to find Edward's birth. What name was he registered under is it definitely Grattidge??
