I'm afraid I don't know much about him, though I do believe he was a policeman.

Thanks to everyone who looked at this post. Sorry for thew delay lots of personal problems so not been on here much.

Diane,

without looking up my details right now. Hubert does ring a bell. did they called him beep beep because he drove coaches or buses, my Aunty Beryl says she can remember some one with that name. Did he have a sister Ethel? whose husband was scolded in the salt pans at the ICI. or does any of this mean anything. I will look at my notes and see what else I can find.

Belinda.

HI Belina,
You don't happen to have a Hubert James on that tree of yours do you? I'm searching for a Hubert James who married my aunt, Hilda Harbach in 1920. She lived in Stoke Works too.

Thanks to everyone whose looked.
Yes Patchem it is the Bromsgrove one I want. I didnt realise there were some many in a similar area. I suppose I need to find a marriage cert. to see whose fathers name is on them, if he did indeed marry. I have looked at deaths on freebmd but still have the same problem too many options.

Thanks again

Belinda - where exactly was he in 1901, who was he with and what was his occupation?

As you can see there are a few possibles so we need to narrow it down.

Hi everyone,

Could someone possibly look up a marriage for this gentleman please.

Edwin James, B1878 Stoke Works, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire.
Fathers name Thomas James, Mothers name Emma Clisset from Stourport, Worcestershire. Lived in Stoke Works, Bromsgrove Worcestershire.
Can't find anything for him after the 1901 census.
Many thanks.
Belinda.
