If this is your post on Rootschat, then the SSDI is incorrect

John William Newman marriage
« on: Wednesday 11 April 12 03:58 BST (UK) »
Hello, i have a John William Newman brn 1922 faversham going to Brooklyn NY in 1947 to be with his wife Alice N Newman.
I dont know wether they married in America,

I am hoping they married in Kent,i think from the record of John going to the USA though 1942 and 1945 they could have married there.

There is also a record of a Alice Newman going from Southampton to NY in 1947.

If he was born 1922, he might still be living - try http://www.whitepages.com/
If you know Alice's dob, you could search the SSDI for her. If listed, it would give the last address that benefit payments were sent to.

EDIT - if you have another thread about him, it would have been best to have posted on there. For all we know, you may have seen the above suggestion already and dismissed it. ;-)
