Hi I am looking to see if anyone can help me with my great grandmothers brother Charley Ward.
I think he was born around 1896 in West Ham. I have him in the 1901 census age 5 living in Sandel Street, West Ham. I think I have him aged 14 still in West Ham with his mother Clara Ward. From then on I know practically nothing. My dad can remember meeting an Uncle Charley (he would have been a great uncle) but not when. My dad was born 1947 so I presume he was alive after this date. My dad also thinks he may have served in WW1 but again no evidence.
According to some records from the Childrens Home my great grandmother lived at his full name is given as Charles William Ward (his father was Charles and his grandfather was William so the names fit in) but on another record he is known as Charles Harold Ward.
Branching out a wee bit from the tree to uncles/aunts etc and as his name came up and my dad met him I wanted to see if there was any further information I could find out
Many thanks
Steven
