Fred was my father's brother. I only found out that he existed through my geneology researches. I do not think my father even knew he had a brother. He was born in 1899 in Clerkenwell London and died at the early age of 28. I think he had been in the Navy. I would like to know if he had any children, Maybe I have cousins that I know nothing about!!! I have alot of info about his father, my grandfather that I could pass on. Many thanks Sylvia |

All a bit of a mystery. The brothers were separated at an early age after a family disagreement, [or a big bust-up] and even tho' they both lived in London I am sure there was no contact. We met dad's half brothers and sisters, went to his mum's funeral, but there was never a mention of poor Fred. Thanks for the help. Sylvia |

The boys father, Philip, left home and went to USA. After that, my father Philip, was fostered by a neighbour and Fred went to live with his uncle William. William had other children and I was hoping that one of their family would pick up on this, never mind, eh! Thanks for the help. Sylvia |
