Presumably this is him from the ER's:

Edwin J Lewis
Year: 1957
County or Borough: Hammersmith and Fulham
Ward or Division/Constituency: Barons Court
Street Address: 8 Ravenscourt Road (No, it is 64)

Also at 64 are Hilda F and Olive A Kirkham, Daisy E Roe, and Edward W Woodell.

Added: Also there in 1954.

Hi folks,

Ted is the father of my aunt, her parents were not married and the addresses we have are from the bastardy orders that were made against him. The only details these show are his full name and his address, there is no date of birth but my aunt's older brother thought that he was about ten years older than their mother. My aunt appreciates that he will be long gone by now but she would like to know who he was and where she comes from.

We appreciate any help that can be given.

This is the place to start looking........

Do his 'relatives' know when and where he died?

How are they connected to him?

What documentary proof is there of his places of abode which you quote?

Simon, how have you connected to Ted in the first place? If you have some background then it might help us find the right records.

Hi Simon.

Just to confirm - I take it this person wasn't married as far as you know?

Have you checked on Freebmd? There are 3 births which fit your info, but without knowing more it would be impossible to say if one is yours:

Births Mar 1895 (>99%)
Lewis Edwin James Bedwelty 11a 71

Births Sep 1897 (>99%)
Lewis Edwin James Llanelly 11a 1062

Births Mar 1898 (>99%)
Lewis Edwin James Chepstow 11a 12

We are looking for any info for a Edwin James Lewis (Ted)

Dob 1896 (very rough estimate based on information from relatives)

In 1951 he Resided at 71 Wilsham rd, London W12

1952-1966 He resided at 64 Ravenscourt Rd, London

We believe at some point he worked on the buses as a conductor.

We don't know his parents names or where he was born, so we are looking for any suggestions about where to go next.
