Hello
I'm trying to find out what happened to my uncle Alfred Charles Barnett. He was born in March 1897 and appears on the 1911 census, aged 14, together with father Charles Alfred, mother Louisa, brothers Ernest and Albert and sisters Louisa and Ada. Ernest died in 1914 and I remember the others from when I was growing up. However, I can't find any trace of Alfred Charles after the 1911 census and, given that my father was named Alfred Thomas in 1912, I assume that Alfred Charles must have died. My father never ever mentioned an elder brother with the same first name (or possibly he was called Chrles Alfred) so I assume he must have died before my father was born but I can find no record. I have searched most places I can think of with no luck, but being relatively new at this, I my have missed something important. Can anyone help?
