Tracy

The marriage I posted related to the SECOND death............and was intended to show that the death was not that of your relation, to help with pinpointing the correct record

It looks like Clifford and Iris were born in Dudley, Pamela in Newark in 1953. I cannot find James Jnr though. Mothers maiden? name of Willetts.

Thank you all for the information above!

The death record is definitely the East Retford record. I was led to believe that they were born in Lincolnshire. The only ones that I can find appear to be Dudley. I believe that they were all born to the same mother. The Saxilby address was supposedly recently but I am unable to find anything on here!
The only thing that I was told was that James W had two children before the war and two after with the names above.
Is that marriage definitely his?? Do you know what the record is in USA??
Thank you though for all of your help!

Ancestry links the first death to a record in the USA......

WHERE were the 'children' born, Tracy?

Were/are they all full siblings.....or do they have different mothers?

When were they 'last known' in Saxilby?

I have problem with this enquiry ~ I cant find a James Newell in Gainsborough in 1916, and nothing in the birth records seems to tally up with the four siblings in Licolnshire. Have you got the right place?...the right names?...spellings??...

Have you looked for dates of birth on free bmd, as I am having difficulty finding all 4 names with the same parents, and an appropriate marriage for parents:

Hi,
I have messaged a few people that possibly have them in their tree but I have had no response so was looking to this as my next option.

Thank you for that though! I will have a look on that site!

Have you looked to see if they are in any trees on here?

Hi,

I am trying to find Newell Family last known area of Saxilby Lincoln. 4 Siblings - Cliff, James, Iris and Pamela. Their father was a James Newell born in Gainsborough in 1916. Cliff was born Circa 1936. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,
