Hello Jane,

It's been over 3 months since Margaret posted that query so it may be better to click on her name and send your message that way. Cx

Jane, Basford and Ilkeston are registration districts, Ilkeston being the sub district for Basford. So, your rellys might not necessarily have move from Basford to Ilkeston.

Hello Margaret,

Its been three years since Jane posted this message so it's doubtful she is looking for replies.

Try clicking on her name and sending your message that way. If she still has the same email address, she will be notified.

If you are looking for any family connections on Genes, the best thing to do is to put the names you are researching into the Search Trees box (above in the dark green bar) to see if anyone else has them in their tree.

If you find a connection, you can contact the tree owners.

Good luck. Cx.

I'm useless on old writing but it's Terrace.

Jane needs someone who can read better than me because it looks very much like William had a child born 04/02/1911 & another 06/03/1911!

Claire in Wales, could that address be Bonsall Place,rather than, B????ll Terrace
Julia in Derbyshire

Also a further child born 04/02/1911?!!!!!!!

Howe William Basford 7b 260

Address on Army discharge

3 B????ll Terrace
Bath St
Ilkeston

Reg Number 24632 for someone who can read old writing to have a go

Basford, in Nottinghamshire, and a suberb of Nottingham is the registration office for this area, so they didn't necessarily live there.

His army papers are on Ancestry, most of them I can't read but no suprise there!

Enlisted 25/03/1915 age 25 years & 11 months.

2 children born 1911 but different dates!

Here's another

Births Dec 1913
HOWE Gladys Whitehead Basford 7b 502

These seem to be the birth references of two of their children:

Surname Howe, mother's maiden name Whitehead

Births Dec 1923
Howe Phyllis Whitehead Basford 7b 407

Births Jun 1926
Howe Kathleen Whitehead Basford 7b 388

Have you entered the names in the 'SEARCH TREES' box at the top of the page to see if anyone else has them in their tree?
