ARC TBC.............A New Shakespeare

Post by niikib »

Hello everyone,abit about my shakespeare's my grandfather is Alfred Walter 1899,his father is Henry Walter 1871,son of Isachar shakespeare & emma smith.
We dont know alot about my grandfather or his father.I know Alfred was born somewhere near stourbridge & had two sisters Daisy 1900 & Violet 1902.
His father died aged 32 leaving elizabeth a widow,elizabeth did get remarried to a charles (we think thats his name)She was living in stourbridge at the time of Henry;s death.She then moved to teesside.
Which makes me ask two questions how & why did Henry die young & why Elizabeth a widow with three children moved.So if anyone can fill the gaps i would be grateful.
Looking forward to getting to know you all x
