Not sure if this is the same GURD but a Len GURD lived in a cottage between Calshot and Fawley during the 1970s, sadly he died but not sure if there was any other family. Len used to work at Southampton Central in the parcels section and used to supervise the loading of our trucks when British Rail did parcel delivery, this was taken over by National Carriers which are now Lynx!!

Found a ROSIE GURD aged 17 living in St Marys district on 1901 census, but couldn't find Rosie on 1891 though. Other than that,all I can find is the birth ref, Florence Rose Gurd , District:Southampton, Quarter: Sept, Year:1883 , Vol:2c, Page:41. linda ============================== Gain access to over two billion names including the new Immigration Collection with an Ancestry.com free trial.
