It was my fault that I added ‘s’ to the name Jack by mistake. My grandmother was Emily Ellen Witheridge. Her mother’s name before marriage was Emily Ellen Attrill. Hence the connection with the name Attrill. See copy link Wikipedia on Robert Jack. https://www.pafc.co.uk/news/2019/july/greatest-manager-no.4 And again thank you for information on my maternal side. My paternal side has taken me back to one of my 4th great grandfather Born in Venice, Italy. 1773. Johann Damelwic (changed to Joseph Demellweek in England). Married to Alice May. I am one of 35 grandchildren of John & Clara Northmore. My great grandfather’s mother was Louisa Demellweek, great grandaughter of Joseph. I visited Venice in 1985 - felt ‘so at home’ and found out years later about Joseph.

Over to you………………

Thank you. Just realised how to access info. Apologies for delay logging in - family commitments! I can see the ‘link’ with Bob Jacks showing St Helier, Channel Islands. My maternal great grandparents originated from St Helier, Channel Islands. Attrill - is their family name. Yes - i understand that calling someone ‘Uncle’ all those years ago was quite common. However, your information regarding St Helier descendants has given me much information. Thank you.

The man may not have actually been a relation………’uncle’ could have been just a courtesy title. In those days, children did not address adults by their forenames - it wasn’t considered polite - so friends of their parents became honorary aunts and uncles.

Things have changed…..and not for the better

If you are certain that he was actually related, you’ll have to do some in-depth research of your proven antecedents. Start with your grandparents’ siblings, whose details one assumes you know. I’m surprised you haven’t already done this ;-) ;-)

Re: David’s abode at the time of his marriage

Looks to me to be Buncrana, as per the Parish

Donald died 1980 in Plymouth district

1921 census posted above shows Katheleen Jack - original says she is married

David Jack married Kathleen McCormack 17/6/19919 in the district of Inishowen which is a peninsula in Co. Donegal sitting next to Londonderry (Derry)

https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/marriage_returns/marriages_1919/09683/5511952.pdf

Looking at the original it says David was born 6.5.1898 and his Father was Robert Jack whose profession looks like retired player.
Her Father was Michael McCormack, profession "Customs" and she lived in Derry at time of marriage. Can't read where David was living nor his occupation.

David signed and it looks as though the priest wrote it as David B. N. Jack
