I'm not convinced by the one I posted..........

We need Christina to tell us when Daniel was born, and married........

You're right Reg. I've just looked on CWGC and Daniel was 27yrs old when he died in 1915.

Maybe the Alice that I found could be right.

Unit Text: 1st Bn.
Age: 27
Date of Death: 16/11/1915

Additional information: Son of John and Rose Cummings; husband of Alice Clare Cummings (nee Pinglaux), of La Moie Cottage, St. Brelades, Jersey.

As far as I can see, nothing to say that the parents were in the CI........my interpretation is that the address is that of Daniel and Alice. Could easily be wrong!

I'd read that as Daniel and Alice's address too.

There's nothing coming remotely close for Daniel and his parents John and Rose in CI. They're probably in England.

You need to obtain the marriage cert for Daniel and Alice...........it will tell you his father's occupation, and may help with locating the family on a census.

Hi Christina,

There's no marriage showing for them in England indexes. I'm not sure if Channel Isles indexes are seperate.

Hopefully someone else will know and be able to point you in the right direction.
