Hi,
I have only just begun to get an interest to my ancestory; when talking to my grandfather and trying to find out more, he informed me that his father was an orphan until becoming a capenter's aprentice. The orphanage i know was in Hackney, London. I really would like to find out who his mother and father were, but my family do not have a clue. I know my Great grandfather's name (however, this may have been given at the orphanage) and his date of birth. Can anyone help point me in the right direction and suggest how i might trace this?
Many thanks KKingman
If anyone wanted to help...
Charles Thomas Want b. 23rd Nov 1898 d. 31st March 1979.
Married to Edith May Precilla Whitehead b. 27th July 1900 d. 27th June 1976.
My grandfather remembers a sister of Charles and thinks she was called Mary.
