Trying to find some more info on parents of Frederick G and Ellen[a] L Pain born to Pain and Parfitt in Frome in 1921, apart from that, I know nothing! I know about Frederick's marriage and kids, but cannot find any marriages/deaths for Ellen either to give clues. Nor anymore children of Parfitt n Pain in Frome, nor a marriage at all for a Pain and Parfitt. Have tried a few spellings.
Where can I look? No Parish records online that I can find! boohoo =[

Not much point speculating I think as there is no obvious marriage - there are also a few Payne/Parfitts but not in right area. You really do need a birth cert to find out who the parents were.

Someone has William & Beatrice on their family tree on Ancestry - if they are correct it is a different family.

Of course Parfitt could be the lady's maiden name but if she'd been married before then the marriage to Pain would be in a different name.

True...interesting. Also I found it interesting[funny] that that Parfitt family, their boys have quite normal names, Charles, William, Oliver...then Lemuel?! lol random. New one on me!

In the early days Lemuel and Samuel were often interchanged although both were separate names.

interesting info RE these guys! Emailed a relative who may have know something, and she thought that her Grandparents when she knew them were probably called William and Beatrice and that they lived in East London when she knew them!! So looks like this may well be them!

We'd be interested to know once you have the birth cert.
Especially as someone else has them down as a different family !
