Find Ancestors

My Gt grandfather Frank George Nayler/ Naylor was born in 1894 in Colchester. He served in WW1, but we have no medals or idea of his Regiment. The only Frank George Naylor that i can find is one in the Leics regiment, but i was in the belief that being colchester born and bred he would be in the Essex regiment. I wondered if someone could look up in the 1911 census to find him for me? Perhaps he wasn't living in Colchester when he signed up?

Franks George Naylers Father was also called Frank, who married Matilda in 1910, and i would have expected Frank to be living with his father,Matilda, Agnes, Charles and Alfred in 1911 in Colchester.

If someone could give me the census info from Frank, Matilda and children 1911 and perhaps Frank George Nayler wherever he may be i would be so grateful.

Thanks, David

I'm now wondering if i got his marriage to Matilda wrong, i can't find it myself. Frank Senior was born in Colchester in 1868, and died in Colchester, in later life he was a fireman and died putting out a fire in the town centre. If he does show in the 1911 census hopefully it will list his 2nd wife. Please note that he may be listed as Naylor or Nayler or even nailer
Thanks

Alfred Thomas Naylor certainly appears on the 1911 census in colchester, but i can't access it. Who is he living with at that time?

Thanks

Have you considered this one??

Yes thankyou, there's also another Frank George Nayler in the Leics Regiment. I don't know if it's possible to be the same man. The story goes that he was a POW and the Germans amputated his leg, he certainly had a false one.

thanks David

Nayles? No wonder he couldn't be found lol. At a guess i would say they were still living in Stanwell street.

Thanks very much Dee

Franks marriage is listed in BMD and was married in Lexden 1910, but it doesn't list a spouse.

Whoa!! you guys have come up trumps for me here. Thank you so so much. It seems Alfred Thomas was adopted , his mother Agnes died it seems in Childbirth or days later.

Cheers everyone
