Frederick William >>> HornE >>> born in 1904 .......

If he was English (and not Scottish) there are unfortunately several Frederick William Horne s born around the right time ... one in early 1904 (or late 1903) in West Ham, one in late 1904 in Hendon, 4 in 1903

is 1904 the recorded year of birth or is it calculated from a stated age ?

assuming it is Frederick you would like to find information about and not just the marriage ?

Hi all you fellow nite owls,
I am trying to find evidence of the marriage of Frederick W. Horne to Elizabeth Keenan in approx 1922. The facts i have are as follows:-

Celia Horne b.1923. Baptised in Holywood Co. Down. Mother, Elizabeth Keenan. Father, Frederick W. Horne, a English soldier in the Seaforth Highlanders, b.1904.
Two further children, Bernadette & Elizabeth, followed. Elizabeth Snr. died shortly after the birth of Elizabeth. All three children then sent to England.

Due to the time scale, i am assuming Fred was about 18 when he went to Ireland, got Elizabeth pregnant and had to marry her. Therefore the Marriage must have been between 1921 and 1923.

I have tried a number of sites, but cannot find ANY reference to a marriage, or to Elizabeth Keenan.

Can you help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Michael.
