Hi
Yes I noticed that about Frederick John Bowler born 1883 Wycombe Buckinghamshire On His Army Papers WW1

But I have no idea why he gave that name
As far as I know he only married Maryann Emma Whitts born 1884 Reading

His Father was Henry Bowler born Wycombe 1845 and his Mother was Deborah Bailey born Princess Risborough 1846

Next time I go to the local Library Hucknall I will try that on Ancestry Electoral Rolls

You learn some thing new every day !!


Thankyou all once again
Olive

The records are on Ancestry - found by putting in the names and trawling through the results

You wouldn't show on the electoral roll Olive as you were not old enough to vote at that time.

I wondered if you knew much about Frederick's father (the one married to Mary A. E Whitts). It seems that he was also knows as 'Thompson' and I wondered why as I couldn't see an obvious reason.

Don't know why this didn't come up yesterday, but it's there now. I'd have posted it earlier.............lol!

Frederick Bowler and Olive Mary Bowler
Residence Year: 1947
Address: Third Avenue 6
Residence Place: Luton, Bedfordshire, England
Parliamentary Division: Luton

Nobody else at the address

Also there in 1945 - just the two of them

Found by using Mary's name, as opposed to Frederick's which was my search tool yesterday................bizarre

Still there in 1948 - with your mother's names reversed, which doesn't help the search.

No record of them on Ancestry. I would have posted them if I had come across them

In any case, no ER during the War

The record may possibly be at the main library in Luton - searchable by address and listing only residents aged 21 or over.
The Electoral Roll will not give you any info other than the names of people at the address
