I see you have some other threads here, and people have been helping you. It might be worth making a list of questions/persons of interest - so long as they refer to the same branch of the family, ideally - and then we can help you in a single thread, as I suspect many of these people are linked?

As Kate has already said, however, it would be best not to post information about persons you believe to be living, as it is against the forum rules.

Of course, the problem with secret cousins is that unless you know for sure that any are already dead, they may well still be alive. I have run into this problem myself, with cousins of my grandmother, and it turned out that one was 95 and living in Quebec.

Albert, can you please confirm whether your cousin (the one who this thread is about) is still alive or deceased, please, so I can sort out whether his name needs deleting?

I can't find a corresponding birth for your cousin, but of course he may have been given a different name.

(That or I'm just missing something obvious...)

The information of today means that my cousin [name removed], now aged about 73-74 if still alive, was possibly not the legitimate son of my aunty Wynn. However, I suspect that his father had produced him and others before marrying aunty Wynn in 1947 because cousin [name removed] had already been around for 3-4-years.

I have not seen nor head of cousin [name removed] in Tottenham since 1966 so cannot confirm one way or another.

Oh, in that case I will delete identifying info about him until we know for sure. Thanks, Albert.

I've changed the thread title to the name of your uncle.

My uncle Ernest died aged 52 in 1957. At that time, his youngest son had been aged 9-years, meaning Uncle Ernest had produced the boy at around age 43. However, I strongly suspect that uncle Ernest had been busy elsewhere before 1947, perhaps even married to another woman, and had other sons or daughters.

Ernest D J Sadler married Violet Raven Jul-Sep 1932 Edmonton. Albert, I will send you a PM with info about any likely children of that marriage, as I think this could be the same person as Ernest J D Sadler with the initials swopped over.
