Marilyn Report 6 Mar 2016 04:13

i am trying to find out more information about my grandparents Richard Feveyear and his wife Ellen Kate Flatt. Ellen died in 1933 when my dad was 10 yrs old. My grandfather remarried a Bessie-may Sillett in late 1933. What i am looking for is photos and stories of my grandparents as there was very little contact with them when i was small.
Thank you in advance if you can help

There is a public family tree on Ancestry which has Richard Feveyear on. Born abt 1898 Stradbroke, Suffolk died 1967.

Tree belongs to Jayne1362 but there are no photo's of Richard, just family details, 1911 census and death index,

Regards,

Ian

Step Son was often referred to as Son in Law back in those days. If you check out the image, George Flatt's age is 27 and not 37

The only info I can find for son Japeth Flatt is his birth registration.

There is not a son William Flatt on the 1881 census........so I am wondering if William is actually Japeth???

Hi Andrew

I had a look about and it all got rather complicated.

Rather than have to go back to it all........I thought I would post the info I found just in case Marilyn doesn't have it.

Well done for finding that 1911.........I think you have cracked that one!

I spent ages looking for that!

There no births registered for a Nellie Flatt that would tie in with that record.

A copy of the marriage cert might be needed on this one.

Or.....a copy of Ellen Kate Flatt's birth certificate.

Perhaps if Marilyn returns to this thread, she will be able to enlighten us as to the maiden name of Alice?
