I saw these but am unsure as not actually saying james edward as 1901 and marriage does I couldnt actually find a birth for james edward meek either isnt that a bit odd

Vera

Vera Report 12 Apr 2011 07:35

Not really Pamela, people added or left off names as it suited them :-))

If you notice his family lived at Edwards Court...maybe he liked the name Edward.

Pamela,
Difficult to answer that question might have been left off or mistranscribed.

I cannot find my grandparents on the 1911....they didn't marry until September 1911.

Getting James Edwards marriage certificate will give you his father name and occupation.
