  • Can you see Frederick?

    Hi all,

    Frederick G(eorge) Carter b. 1891 (according to 1901 & 1911 census), however I can't find his birth or see him on the 1939 register, no marriage hints either on Ancestry! Have tried using GRO using MMN but no luck - link for 1911 census https://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bi...11&usePUB=true
    His father is John Carter b. 1866, Barnet, Middlesex and mother Annie Woodley b. 1868, Clewer, Berkshire.
    Can anyone spot his birth, marriage or death please?
    TIA Tessie

    So, one of Frederick's brothers died in France & Flanders in 1918. On his record it says Annie (his mother) is in Alberta, Canada and his father is deceased (I assume in Canada). Some of the other children I can't trace either so I'm thinking they've all gone to Canada - does anyone have a WW sub to look up for me please? Also, oddly I can't find any birth registrations for any of the children, only baptisms!?
    Thanks

        I can’t see a birth on GRO that fits any time 1887 to 1896. I have tried his surname being either CARTER or WOODLEY (and variants) and the same thing reversing the order of his forenames. Also tried him accidentally being registered as female (it happens!) but still zilch. Also nothing for a child with no forenames in case one or other has been mistranscribed.

            I have found this earlier birth in Croydon which is correct Reg Dist for a child of the correct forenames and surname but there is no mms. Could he have the wrong age on census?

                  Carolyn - thanks, looks like a good lead - I don't have a library log in!?

                  Gallowaylass - I tried that too - would both census be wrong though and his age on those match the US Passenger List Elaine just found

                  Elaine - thanks - I'll look for a marriage between 1909 and 1914 for that area as seems he hasn't moved that far away!

                  Edit* ignore that - just read the bit about the wife lol - so him and his Dad - what about his Mum and siblings though - they must be on another one somewhere and Annie certainly ends up in Canada! Thanks for info so far

                          Thanks Vera, so Carolyns baptism looks the most likely so far but very strange there are no birth registers for any of the children!! Will take another look tomorrow for them
