Hello, Is there anyone who has access to the 1911 census who is willing to look up someone for me. I am trying to find the parents and siblings of a Clifford BROOK who I believe was born in 1904 in Lewis Sussex. I believe he died in South Africa Many thanks Angela

Hi Ann I was hoping that you'd find the same person at the address in both 1911 and 1920, so that you could 'possibly' conclude that they were there in 1917 too. Anyway, another thought... I just checked the IoW library catalogue here... http://library.iow.gov.uk/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/MSGTRN/OPAC/BSEARCH and that shows a book called: Hampshire year book 1917-18 : with official directory for Hampshire and Isle of Wight [book] Author: HOLBROOK, Arthur R. Imprint: Holbrook & Son, Ltd., 1917. ISBN: A000011668 Dewey Class: 914ISL1917 914 This is held in the Local Studies section of the Newport library. Perhaps there is someone who might be able to take a look for you, or you could try ringing the library.

April Thanks to Bob mentioning the family in the earlier censuses, the name of the 11th child appears to be Dora, shown as aged 1 in 1891 and 12 in 1901. This is almost certainly Dora Constance May Morris (no MMS recorded in IWBMD index). GRO index gives birth as Apr-Jun Qtr 1889, whereas Clara Ann Morris and Frank Scovell married Oct-Dec Qtr 1889. As I suspected.

April There are probably 10 children listed between 1888 and 1904, 4 of whom died young according to the IWFHS BMD (assuming all Scovells with Morris as MMS are connected). If you know for certain there were 11 I would suggest you consider that the first child was born before 1888 and registered with the surname Morris. I don't think just because they stopped having children after 1904 you should assume they moved away. After 11 children perhaps they just decided enough was enough :-) Considering the first 4 children apparently died young I am surprised that they went on to have another healthy 6 children. The odd thing is that I can't find any marriages or deaths for these 6, except possibly the youngest Percival Henry who may have married in 1925. A Clara Ann Scovell died 1941 aged 72 on IW A Frank Scovell died 1960 aged 92 Can't confirm that these are your Frank and Clara but worth checking out I would also suggest that your assumption that Clara and Frank were married in a Register Office is questionable. More likely in a Non-Conformist Church. If it was a Register Office wedding (unlikely in the 1880s) then it would have been in Newport, AFAIK there have never been any others on the Island.

April, In the 1911 census they are still on the Island at Niton, the youngest child is Percy aged 6 (born Niton). In that census he is recorded as Frank, however on earlier census he is recorded as Daniel, which should give you the right Frank born 1867 from the IoW site (plus his mother's maiden name).

Has anyone checked Ancestry for you yet? They have the 1911 and 1920 Kelly's for Hampshire, but it isn't clear if they include the IoW as well. I'm sorry, I'd check for you but my subscription has lapsed - I'm hoping that Father Christmas will pay the next instalment ;-) You can also see the 1911 census on http://www.historicaldirectories.org but a quick look suggests that this directory doesn't list the residents by address order, so it's not so easy to find a specific address.

A FORMER Second World War Phantom Signals officer, Col David Travers Worsley Gibson, has died, aged 92. Born in London, Col Gibson was commissioned into the Royal Signals in August, 1937, after graduating from the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich. He set off for France as part of the British Expeditionary Force at the outbreak of the war in 1939, before retreating to Dunkirk in 1940. Timid by nature, Col Gibson learned to control his fear and described being dive-bombed on the beach as frightening, exciting and random, as no-one knew where the next bomb would land. Col Gibson worked under Lieut Col Hopkinson in the Phantom Signals, who encouraged his lateral thinking skills in finding solutions to a series of communication problems. He served for three months in the Anzio Beachhead in 1944 with the 5th Division Signals, with whom he spent the rest of the war. After the war, he was awarded an MBE for commanding the wireless chain squadron in Singapore - a network linking the UK with all its overseas commands and military forces of the Commonwealth. On leaving the army in 1969, Col Gibson took up teaching physics, initially at Brighton College, before moving to Hamstead, near Yarmouth, in 1975. He taught science at Ryde School before retiring in 1984. (***He Started at Ryde School in 1978, years after I had left, then I was there from 1966 to 1971***) Col Gibson and his wife, Monica, who died earlier this year, were members of the Shalfleet and Yarmouth branch of the IW Conservative Association for 25 years, and Col Gibson was president from 2000 to 2008. The couple were also in the choir at Shalfleet Church. He leaves his son, Peter, daughters, Helen and Harriet, seven grandchildren and three great grandchildren. His funeral took place in Newtown on November 5. ------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from this Royal Signals Discussion mailing list, simply send an e-mail to: royal-signals-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
