Any guidance welcome:
My grandfather (killed WW2 1940) is Albert Henry Dunt (b c1900). He was raised by his grandparents as his father William E Dunt b c1880 twice spent time in Fiji with an illness and died young. Albert had no brothers or sisters but was raised with another child. Who is that child??
While his father was in Fiji it is told that Albert's mother [Mabel b c1880] had other admirers. But Albert's father had a sister [Celia Annie Dunt b c1882] who I believe was married in 1899. Family rumour was that all did not go well for her.
I cannot find the married name for Celia Annie Dunt.
I cannot find mabel's maiden name.
I feel with these I might untangle the puzzle.
All this took place in East London, Central London and ultimately Walthamstow.
Here they are in 1901
DUNT, Frederick Head Married M 47 1854 Warehouse Man Drapers
DUNT, Sarah Wife Married F 45 1856
DUNT, William Son Married M 21 1880 Carpenter
DUNT, Mabel Daughter Married F 20 1881
DUNT, Lillian Daughter F 11 1890
DUNT, Albert Grand Son M 0 (7 MOS)
Living in Walthamstow. Celia Annie is now 19 and appears to have left home. She was happily listed with them in 1891.
Any help greatly appreciated. I've tried BMDs but of course limited help. Nigel
