Derham is the transcription on Ancestry, that's why I didn't see it to start with. Looks more like Perham on the image.

Rose,

Are you sure of the spellings? Derham not Perham ?

Although the dates and ages match.

Thanks
Toni

toni,

When did Violet and Albert die? Perhaps Violet remarried later.

Births Dec 1919
Perham George A Drake W. Ham 4a 278


Her maiden name was Drake because it's listed as such next to George's birth.

Just something my mother thought or had heard over the years.

Maybe because of the age. Not sure really. But it doen't look that way.

We believe they only had the one child as my Grandfather George Albert Perham Born 1919- 1976 was an orphan when he married my grandmother in 1945.

Toni Violet's name at birth was Drake according to the records. Why do you think she was married before?

Thank you to all of you that have helped. I think with regards to Drakes's 1st marriage I'll have to wait for the marriage certificate to get her maiden name.

Regards and thanks again to you all

Can anyone help? I'm looking for any PERHAM's especially Charles born c1877, Emily c1878, Albert c1887 and Rosetta c1889. Family is from Canning Town, West Ham area.

Albert Married in 1918 to a Violet Emily DRAKE born c1888 Romford. It is possible that this was a 2nd marriage for DRAKE.

DRAKE and PERHAM had one son (George born 1919) - My grandfather, but he was orphaned and lived with an aunt, name unknown. We are unsure of any other details pertaining to his aunts / uncles and mother and father?

Can anyone help?

Regards
Toni
