Robert Tunstall married Marie Tyler in 1933 and had Roberta in 1938 - Roberta then married Jack Smith in Wycombe, Buckinghamshire in 1960 - I believe they may have children, but i would like to contact a member of this family as my grand-mother is a half sister to Robert Tunstall.

Many thanks

Maria

Have you looked to see if anyone has them in their trees on here?

Is this Robert's birth?
Births Dec 1911
Tunstall Robert Kit_ Swindon 5a 54

Added: Roberta appears to have him in her tree.

I wonder if this could be his parent's marriage:-

Name: TUNSTALL, Joseph Thomas R
Registration District: Bristol
County: Gloucestershire
Year of Registration: 1904
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
Spouse's last name: Not available before 1912
Volume No: 6A
Page No: 27

On the same page is Florence Victoria Kite.

If so then this is the family in the 1911 census (before Robert was born):-

TUNSTALL, Joseph Thomas Roger Head Married M 41 1870 Railway Clerk Middlesex Edgware
TUNSTALL, Florence Victoria Wife Married F 28 1883 Wiltshire Swindon
TUNSTALL, Thomas Son M 6 1905 School Wiltshire Swindon
TUNSTALL, Richard Son M 5 1906 School Wiltshire Swindon
TUNSTALL, John Son M 3 1908 Wiltshire Swindon
TUNSTALL, Charles Son M 1 1910 Wiltshire Swindon

4 children born to the marriage - all still living at that time.

Address:
46 Goddard Avenue Swindon

Reference:

Yes this is the parent's marriage - they also had a son - Frederick. I am trying to trace children of any of these.

Thanks

Maria,
Roberta appears to be a member of genes - have you contacted her?

There is also someone on Genes called Loraine who has Robert Tunstall in her tree. Have you contacted her?
