Robert Bogan married Lewisham 1919 to Annie La Roche or Laroche

Bernard Joseph Bogan born 11/09/1904 Lewisham, died Oct 1984 Bexley.
He later became Fr. Bernard Bogan.

Can't seem to find Robert on census! need to know if and how these two might be related.
Thanks for any help please.

Could this be Roberts death? If so he appears to have married late unless it was a second marriage.

Name: Robert Bogan
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1872
Year of Registration: 1939
Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
Age at Death: 67
District: Lewisham
County: Greater London, Kent, London
Volume: 1d
Page: 819

Have you got Bernards birth cert? I wonder if Robert may be his father from an earlier marriage. If you have Roberts marriage cert to Annie, it will have his marital status on, possibly a widower.

Carol,

Theres an Emily Bogan death age 44 in Lewisham 1918, could this be Roberts mother?

Also Peter P. Bogan born Lewisham Sep. 1920 mmn La Roche.

Norah Agnes born Lewisham June 1909...Bernards sister?

Carol, don`t know if this will be any help, but I just googled Bernard Bogan Lewisham and it bought up Gibraltar Heritage Society, and that Bernard was a curate, might be worth a look, may help your search.
