Find Ancestors

Thanks everyone. That gives me a lot of leads to follow up.
Good work.

:-D :-D :-D

By the way-that Iris E Holloway who marries the Docherty in 1942 just might be a sibling of Alfred Ernest.

Think they must have forgotten to put them on the form Maureen...although if I had three children under 5 maybe I would ship them out :-D

Certainly ties in,doesn't it,jax.

In the 1929 electoral roll for Ealing/Acton there's an Alfred Holloway listed with Ernest and Edith.

Wonder where the heck he (Alfred) is in 1911. Did they just neglect to write down their children's names or all they all somewhere else????

There seem to be a few more children born post 1911. Maybe Cliff will recognise a few names?

Would fit with the death in 1960

edit

Ernests death a year before her remarriage

Deaths Dec 1941 (>99%)

This looks like it fits in:

Wright Edith Alice Islington 1b 591

On the 1911 they say they've had 3 children-all living-but none are listed with them.

Was his mother married to a Holloway?

Was just about to post those but she would have been in her 50s at least

there was and Edith A born 1926 and an Iris E born 1921 that would fit those marriages

You may need to purchase the birth cert to find out his parents names

Not seeing anything obvious on the 1911 census

I am getting very frustrated trying to start the ancestry of my father Alfred Ernest Holloway. Shamefully I do not know his mothers first name, and I believe she remarried changing her surname from Holloway to Docherty (spelling ??)
My dad died 14 March 1965 at the age of 57. My mother Alice May Holloway (nee Page) born 9 Aug 1908 and died 7 Aug 1996.
I believe my Dad was born in Acton, West London W3, Brentford district ?
I need to find his mothers names at birth. Can't seem to turn anything up?
Can you help?
