Bertram (who seems to have been registered Bertrude) is an upholsterer.

Could this be the William son of Annie E?

So is this yours who hasn't gone missing or are we looking for a different one?

Cannot find the family in 1891

Sorry to bump my own thread but does anyone have any advice as to how i might find details on the story (if there was one!!)

Thanks for that Anita. Not 100% sure but it could be right. Anne Voisey had a son of Royston b1891 which could have been mis-transcribed to Bonston. I also have a B Voisey born 1878 which ties in with Bertram. Don't have a May/Valentine but i believe there are more siblings which i hadn't found from being told by others.

I am led to believe by contacts i've made that a William Voisey (my G-g-g-Grandfather) went missing in 1900 - apparently they trawled the river but never found anything!!.

Firstly i am not 100% sure where he was around that time but believe him to be in Cardiff so would someone mind looking up Anne Elizabeth Voisey (b1844).

Secondly once i've established where he was likely to be - how would i go about researching any stories about what happened to him? Would it be a local Library & newspaper search? Am i stabbing in the dark here or is there a chance i can find the story?
