His army record is on ancestry and he was paying an allotment to his wife who was living at 7 Sandyhill road Ilford so she is still in the same area that they married .

Totally agree Shirley and Mike

There are other possible marriages in those names so unless the poster has the birth cert then I do not know which child might be theirs

Hello thank you for your help so far.

In reply to questions asked

I have the birth certificate of Gertrude Mabel Dopsie Butler.And the marriage certificate of Mabel and Arthur. Also Mabel did marry again Adam Lopez

Betty and Doreen are not related to Mabel and Arthur,
I have the birth certificate of Betty Butler .

Hope this helps

Anyone know where Dopsie comes from ? it is not a family name.

Thanks.

i wonder if the marriage of Arthur and Mabel lasted very long as Arthur desserted the Army within days of joining.

Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it Report 7 Oct 2013 22:23

He did desert the Army so maybe they left Ilford so he wouldnt be found .
