    3. Percy was born 30 April 1892 in Brighton. I know that he served as an officer in WW1 in the then new Royal Flying Corp. Family lore says that he married an Irish girl, but WHO and WHERE ? Can anyone help, please ???

Can anyone help, please >??? > The closest to Brighton looks like a marriage to Norah ATKIN, Surrey SE, MAR 1938 BUT if he was in France and married in a local church then there might only be French records for such a marriage. Otherwise there are about ten other marriages including his middle initial in England and Wales from 1913 to 1934. There is a 1938 marriage in Medway district to a Mary G MOOREY but she seems to have a matching birth index entry there in 1910 and a 1911 census entry with no hint of Ireland in the family. There is no match for his name (with or without the H) in the Irish marriage indexes. Do you know who registered his death ?
