George William Clayton

[Rosie Knees]

Anyone want to help me trawl for the marriages of my uncle Bill (dec'd)?

George William Clayton bc 1909 Lincoln.

Dad says he was married at least 3 times. I know the last wife was "aunty Betty". Dad thinks none of uncle Bill's marriages resulted in any children but I am embarking on a sideways search to try to find near relatives in Lincoln. I have several children for Millicent (thanks Elizabeth!) and I have found marriages for some of them.

I have just started trawling Ancestry and have done 1928 and 29.

Uncle Bill's sibs were: (Alice) Millicent bc 1904, Dorothy bc 1906, *Bill 1909*, Joyce Louisa b1919, Dad 1922 and last brother 1925. All but Dad and last brother are deceased. Long gap between Bill and Joyce???

Thanks for any assistance :D

Did GWC serve at a distance in WW1? That could explain part of the gap?

Thanks for looking Bridget. I got as far as 1936 then got called away to help wash the dog who had rolled in something lol.

Christine, I don't think George snr (ie, my granddad) was involved in the war. I'm sure my dad would know and would have said so. He (granddad) was an iron foundry worker and I guess would have had a reserved occupation. We (dad and me) were only saying yesterday how we'd like to find a Great War soldier in the family. There's bound to be one somewhere!
