Hi Fan;
Thanks for your post; and YES that is my parents WILLIAM CRABTREE & SHIRLEY ISOBEL COTTEE, father was born March 10th 1945 I think.
My mother has told me of her father but thats it.

You are correct I believe as my Cottee line come from Essex and West Ham area.

But if you are looking for someone in particular you will need to give some details.

Your parents are Shirley (Cottee born 1935)and William Crabtree?
Its what comes up when I search for a marriage of those 2 surnames.

Her eldest sibling was??

Births Jun 1916
Cottee Alfred G Phillips W.Ham 4a 593


So this should be her parents marriage

Marriages Dec 1914
COTTEE Herbert G Phillips W. Ham 4a 845
Phillips Mary A E Cottee W.Ham 4a 845


Edit..Just to add that I doubt I am connected to you as my Cottee line should not really be Cottee as it came in through an illegitimate birth due to the mother having married a Cottee but then having children after seperating from Mr Cottee.

I will be away for a few days until Saturday but look forward to any reply that you may have made on my return Derek..

My mother's maiden name is Cottee and married name is Crabtree.
All around Essex area is where I have been told the Cottee's originated from.
