Just recently I found my grandfathers JOHN THOMAS SIMS had a brother HENRY SIMS. He was born 7 January 1881 in Scotland, to JOHN THOMAS AND ELLEN LUCY SIMS . They moved back to England sometime between 1981 and 1891. HENRY married a GERTRUDE EMMA TRING in 1907 and had two sons HARRY CHARLES 1909 AND ARTHUR EARNEST 1911 both born Croydon. I have found the family on the 1911 census living at 2 Croydon road, Penge. . It states that Henry was a Furman. (Whatever that is). I found his army service record on Ancestry and seems that he spent years in the army and was away from England at war, hence could not find him on the 1901 census. He was in the Royal West Surrey Regiment. Also on his army records it states the my grandfather JOHN THOMAS was also in the 2nd infantry, Royal West Surrey Regiment, but I cannot find any record of him. Is there anywhere else I can look. Does anyone have these names in their tree. Would love to make contact, or just find some more info on him. Heres hoping for a contact. Ann (NZ)
