Find Ancestors

Hi can anyone give me any information as to whether there are any websites that list names of caualties from WW1 - I have a William Hall born 1885 in Cornwall in my tree, he married in 1906 and had children in 1906,1907 and 1913 - his wife remariied in 1922 so I presume he had died by then - I cannot find any record of his death on the BMI so I am wondering if he may have been killed in the 1st world war - can anyone help please
Elaine

Check www.cwgc.org (Commonwealth War Graves Commission) It shows deaths of both world wars. It is free

Hi Lucy - He might have been William Henry from redruth/Camborne, cornwall

Augusta Jane Hall

You could buy the wife's remarriage certificate to see if she is a widow.

Hi Lucy
I was getting confused William Halls wife was Kate, Katie or Catherine ( real name Catherine I think) but she was knownt as Kate
Elaine

hi elaine,
is this the correct marriage from freebmd

Marriages Sep 1906
HALL William Redruth 5c 353
HUGO Catherine Redruth 5c 353

when asking for info on here please try and give as much as possible, making mistakes in names doesn't help.
i.e. augustus or kate or catherine
i.e. hall or halls
with millions of names these little differences make it almost impossible to help you.

Hi Grumpy
Thanks for all the useful tips, as you can guess I am relatively new to all this - yes this is the right marriage - William was born c.1886 I cannot find his death
Regards
Elaine

Sorry Lucy this isn't him his wife was Catherine (Kate) children William Henry, Sidney and Hyacinth Irene
Thanks for trying
Elaine

hi elaine
is this the correct 2nd marriage?

Marriages Jun 1922

Clarke Tom Frome 5c 957
HALL Catherine Frome 5c 957

hi elaine

Births Mar 1913

Hall, Hyacinth, I, Hugo, Redruth 5c 314
-------
just for information. all births from sept quarter 1911 include mothers maiden name, as sort of underlined in the example above,
mothers maiden name = hugo

Marriages Sep 1906 (>99%)

HALL William Redruth 5c 353
HUGO Catherine Redruth 5c 353

Thank you - I have got this information but I am looking for William Hall's death
Elaine

Wrong second marriage Grumpy - it is the one found by Enritchart - but I already have this - I am looking for william Hall's death as I said he married Catherine Hugo 1906 they had children, william in 1906, Sidney in 1909 and Hyacinth in 1913 - she later married Robert Thomas 1922 and ad Victor in 1923 - but I can't find when William would have died - I suppose they could have divorced but that is quite unlikely

iknow this is a long shot but any thing is possible?

Name: William H Hall
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1880
Year of Registration: 1912
Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar
Age at Death: 32
District: Truro
County: Cornwall
Volume: 5c
Page: 177

could go on all night but i think the advice about buying her 2nd marriage certificate to establish whether she was a widow is probably your best bet

Name: William R Hall
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1892
Year of Registration: 1913
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
Age at Death: 21
District: Penzance
County: Cornwall
Volume: 5c
Page: 300

Very long shot I would say - Truro is quite a long way from Redruth - also he was definately born 1886 so would have been 26 in 1912 also that death was jan feb mar quarter 1912 - Hyacinth wasnt born until 1913

Hi who were his parents before marriage?

Hi Sue
William Hall and Augusta Nicholas married Cornwall 1885, he had brothers Richard and Herbert

Guess i am going to have to take everyone's advice and send for his wife's 2nd marriage cert.
Elaine

good morning elaine,
said it was a long shot, but never dismiss the fact that births are not registered on the day. they can be born in 1quarter and registered in the next, even born in one year and registered in the next
i mean no offence to you but for any new researcher it is worth reading genuki's (google it) facts on certificates and definitely following the link to barbara dixons page.
i hope the 2nd marriage certificate puts you on the right way
regards
mick
