Sheila Report 14 Oct 2016 17:09

I have Charlie Hill b 1884 Lichfield d.1975 Wolverhampton.
On 1911 census he was a Police Constable in Wolverhampton.
I have his death certificate which confirms all these details.
The death was notified by his son George Henry Hill.

I found a possible birth entry for a George H. Hill 1914 Wolverhampton mother's surname Harris.

I cannot find any marriage entry for a Charlie Hill in Staffordshire.
Charlie is his correct name because I also have his Christening.

Can anyone help me with his marriage please?

Do you have Charlie's birth? The only birth I can see in Litchfield is this one but the birth year is out and the name is Charles:-

First name(s) CHARLES
Last name HILL
Birth year 1886
Birth quarter 4
Registration month -
Mother's last name -
District LICHFIELD
County Staffordshire
Country England
Volume 6B

Record set England & Wales births 1837-2006

On the 1911 census his name is Charles.

EDIT - Ignore this. See my later post.

Ignore my post above. I have now found his birth:-

Last name HILL
Birth year 1884
Birth quarter 3

Perhaps he didn't feel that Charley was formal enough for a police constable.

Rootgatherer,

Thank you very much. That looks like him.. I will now search for a marriage using the names Alice And Harriet.

This could be the marriage if his wife's name is Harriet Alice (as per the 1939 register):-

Again, ignore my post above. If rootsgatherer's marriage is correct then this would be the daughter's birth:-

It's a year out from the 1939 register, but that's not unheard of.
