Hi All, I've been looking for my GG Grandfathers birth. His name was Alfred Cornelius Walles and I believe he was born c1834/35 possibly in Marylebone. I've looked on the IGI Family search website but there's no sign. Many thanks Naomi

So sorry Geoff, I should have said I think he died in 1872 as I found his wife married to another man in the 1881, she remarried in 1875. I have tried various variations of Walles including Wallis, Wallace, Walls.... Thanks for looking though I do appreciate it. Naomi

Hi Tony, This could possibly be him. He was married in London and I didn't know where he was born. Does the FRC have the VRI available do you know? Thank you very much Naomi
