+++DetEcTive+++ Report 5 Aug 2016 12:37

Can anyone find a suitable death please?

According to the 1939 Register, he was born on 13 Mar 1907 which ties in with

Frederick Waller
Registration Year: 1907
Registration Quarter: Apr-May-Jun
Registration district: Edmonton
Inferred County: Middlesex
Volume: 3a
Page: 656

In 1939, he and his wife (who died 1945) were living at
33 Henderson Road, Edmonton.
He was still listed there on the ER in 1946.

I can't find a death reg which matches with his dob, even assuming that the informant was a bit 'off''

Please be aware that he had a son with the same name 4 Mar 1928 - 3 Sep 2004 who married in 1949 and lived until his death in Cheddington Road, N18 (Edmonton) - Frederick Jnrs wife could still be living.

Thank you.

Thank you for correcting the day of birth Austin Q. I was to busy trying to sort out the Waller/Wally error!

No - I don't know what Frederick Jnrs occupation was.

No - Frederick 1907 doesn't appear to have a middle initial.

At least we can now rule out the Hastings Death! TBH, I'd expect his death to have been Edmonton/Enfield or possibly N London/Waltham Forest

OH is anxious to go out. Back later.

Possible remarriage for him in 1946 to Alice M Allen. This appears to be her on 1939 register:

48 Causeyware Road , Edmonton M.B., Middlesex, England
Alice M Waller (Allen) 12 Dec 1908 Female Unpaid Domestic Duties Married
Reginald V Allen 10 Apr 1904 Male Chemical Factory Maintainance Fitter (Heavy Worker Married
Alice M Lee (Ferrett) 31 Dec 1904 Female Hank Cotton Winder (Heavy Worker) Widowed

AustinQ

AustinQ Report 5 Aug 2016 13:16

Alice M and Frederick still listed together in 1951 electoral register at 48 Causeyware Road , Edmonton (but neither living there in 1952)

Thank you AustinQ. It's always possible that he's been transcribed on the index as WalTer. If we can find when/where Alice died, he might be in the same locality.

AustinQ

AustinQ Report 5 Aug 2016 18:04

Well, I've searched (and searched some more!), - this has me stumped. I can't find a definite death for either of them. Hopefully someone else can see what I can't

It's odd...

Alice M is Alice Mabel Frier ( m Allen )

and there is this

presume this couple?

Yes - this was the orginal marriage, assocuated household and Emily's death

Marriages Sep 1926 (>99%)
Forrester Emily L Waller Edmonton 3a 1763
Waller Frederick Forrester Edmonton 3a 1763

So the marriage to Alice is probably a red herring? Oh well.

I sometimes wonder if the Edmonton reg record keeping wasn't quite what it should have been. Several people from that area have been taken up in a space ship :-0

Thank you for trying :-)

I disagree- I don't have time to explain further, but Alice M Allen (mn Frier,) was b1908 shown below in 1939- she goes on to marry Frederick Waller- she and Frederick are still AT THE SAME address in 1950.

1939:
48 Causeyware Road , Edmonton M.B., Middlesex, England

Alice M Waller (Allen) 12 Dec 1908 Female Unpaid Domestic Duties Married
Reginald V Allen 10 Apr 1904 Male Chemical Factory Maintainance Fitter (Heavy Worker Married

1950 elelctoral register:

48 Causeyware Road , Edmonton

Alice M Waller
Frederick Waller

I'll look into this further tomorrow

I have to say this is still a mystery.

Frederick was born 1907, his wife dies 1945. A possible marriage to Alice M Allen b1908. Alice husband had died 1943. Even if this wasn't 'our' Frederick that married Alice, we still have a definite birth date for Alice and should be able to find her death - but I'm struggling.

Have you tried following all the children?

I know Frederick's daughters Irene and Freda went to Canada in 1954- could he have also gone? (Although he's not on the same passenger list as them).

I haven't given up- just wanted to share my thoughts

That's certainly possible Austin.

As I hadnt added the children to my Ancestry tree on the basis they could be living, I'd only been searching manually for them on FMP. So thanks for that. :-D
