I'm looking for more information about my husband's Great Uncle Wilfred (he was actually registered as Charles Wilfrid BACON) who moved to Brighton from South London in the 30s or 40s. He was born in Alresford, Essex but lost contact with the rest of the family after moving to London working in the retail trade, including as the Manager of a Cycling and Sportswear shop. He started out as a Draper's Assistant in the family Post Office/Grocers/Drapers in Alresford so shop keeping was in his blood. He was an active Christadelphian (as was his mother and two of his siblings). He married Constance KING and they had two daughters, Billie and Pat (Consie Christabel Wilfreda BACON and Patricia Heather BACON). The family made contact with Billie again in the 70s. She had married Edward (Ted) MURREY, they had no children and moved to Leicester, where Constance also lived towards the end of her life. We don't think that Pat had any children either so there are no living descendants in Sussex as far as we are aware. It's believed that the family had a shop in either Brighton or Hove. Charles Wilfred or Wilfrid BACON died while the family wasn't really in contact. I have found a possible death record for 1945 in Brighton & Hove. I'm hoping to find out more about this BACON family's life in Brighton & Hove and if the family story of the shop is accurate, it's location and what they sold. While online records and Christadelphian newsletters have been useful so far, it has been quite difficult to find anything more concrete. I'm hoping someone on this list can help me or suggest some good sources of information for 30s, 40s and 50s Brighton.
