Find Ancestors

Still trying to find out some more Information on Albert William Fisher c1884 in Collingbourne Kingston and died on 09/01/1932 he married Kate Dowse c1883

What info do you already have, Sabrina, and what in particular are you looking for?

By 'more', can we assume that you have already been given some info about this man?

If so, please tell us what, so that time isn't wasted on duplicating findings

All I know is he married Kate Dowse and had I think 3 children 2 girls and a boy. Girls names are Beatrice and Constance (my grandmother) and the boy was called Sidney. I'm looking for Albert William Fisher Parents if poss

he died in 1932

Albert and Kate's marriage registraition - the certificate should give you his age and his father's name and occupation. Then you can look for him in the census:

Marriages Jun 1907 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DOWSE Kate Pewsey 5a 313
FISHER Albert * Pewsey 5a 313

The * means that the transcriber could not read the second name. It is very unclear on the image but looks like William to me.

Have you checked the 1891 census

Paula, he died 1932 I think.
I assume this is their marriage:

Marriages Jun 1907 (>99%)
DOWSE Kate Pewsey 5a 313
FISHER Albert * Pewsey 5a 313

It might be an idea to get the cert and find out his father's name.

thank you

Sorry Paula, my post ended up a long way down! Was only referring to marriage date not being 1932 - was it you or someone else who thought this? A previous marriage was suggested, didn't want anyone heading off down that route.

How do you know where he was born?

Albert W Fisher 1915 Jul-Aug-Sep Wiltshire

From a relative, but they were nor 100%

There is a birth of an Albert William Fisher in 1883 in Hungerford district - which does not include the supposed birthplace of the person being researched.

Births Jun 1883 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fisher Albert William Hungerford 2c 264


Hence my question about how you know where he was born.............

I guess he was born in the Wiltshire area that's all i know sorry

Best advice I can offer is that you either A buy his marriage cert - or B buy some credits for 1911 census to find out A his father's name or B his birthplace.

Guessing is not a good idea if you wish to compile an accurate family tree.............

Hi Janet

Yes that was me that suggested a previous married did not relise it was year of death. That is why I have now deleted.
