If possible i would like this post to stay in the brickwall section and if anyone has any more ideas that might help me solve this it will be ver...

Hi All, i apologise, i'm back again . After Maggie's great suggestion i should contact West Surrey Family History Society, i have heard back from them with a possible birth for Albert Albert Parks Lambeth Sep Qt 1889 1d 389 Sadly they have given me no more info, so i'm wondering if some kind person ...

Hi, thanks for pointing that out but the name change from Kettle to Hyde is not a mistake and hasn't been wrongly transcribed on the 1911 census. Looking back at the notes i have i did make a mistake and say between 1901 and 1911 census, when in fact i should of said 1891 and 1901 . When i started m...

Hi, another piece of info i have just come across is the Kettle family (Ethel's parents) changed their names from Kettle to Hyde sometime between the 1901 and 1911 census. Even though Ethel married under the name of Kettle she could of been using the name Hyde as well. I'm wondering if an Ethel Hyde...

Thank you Maggie for all your help, i will contact the West Surrey Family History Society and see if they can help. I do strongly believe the name Rogue is made up and it seems slightly strange that none of Albert's children were named John, after his father, which seemed to be the custom back then....

Thank you so much for taking the time to look.
Kind Regards.

I know it sounds like i'm clutching at straws but Albert has been a mystery for so long within the family that i have to keep digging away until i find him. Everyone's help is greatly appreciated and any idea's can only help.
Kind Regards.

Hi, I am still searching for Albert and have come across an Albert Parks on the 1911 census but can't view the image, it says Albert Parks born 1884 Kent Dover, living Southwark 1911. This is the location Albert was living when he married in 1912. I can't seem to find another Albert living in Southw...

Thanks Maggie, No clues there then unless Louis is an Uncle ? or is that just wishful thinking, i guess the mystery continues . I've had another look at the marriage cert and it says Albert 22, porter and Ethel Emma Kettle 21, laundress, Ethel's birth cert says she was born in 1894 so she would of b...

Hi not sure if this is any help but i do have a certificaite for The Royal Sanitary Institute, Examination for Sanitary Inspector, given to Albert Parkes 9th December 1922, it is signed by the Chairman of the Council, LOUIS C Parkes, i haven't been able to make a connection between the two but Alber...

Occupation on marriage cert for John says Gamekeeper but it also says William Kettle was a master builder when in fact he was a painter and decorator, so anything is possible i guess.
KInd regards.
