Have you found him or his brother on the English census for 1891 and 1901. Just wondering if he was Scottish? Yes I know a stupid question but someone has to ask it. Maureen

his name is william john askew, born abt 1889/91, on his marriage cert his name is william john waterman askew, same on his divorce papers and on his death cert his name is william askew, he died aged 58 in 1948, he has a brother christopher harold askew who was born abt 1899/1900 and died aged 57 in 1957 who i also cant find a birth for. ive searched on genes, ancestry, bmd and 1837, searched years 1889/1890 and 1891 and not found anything, he was also in war, a gordon highlander but theres confusion with that as theres no army numbers etc.. on his marriage cert. what else can i do? ive done a few posts bout this aswell. joanne

A name & what has been searched would be a start. How did you get back to him also might help.
