Hi
I am trying to trace my Paternal Grandmother's side of the family, her name was Emma Louisa Norman, born 4 Oct 1889 in Tytherton, Wiltshire & died 16 Mar 1976 in Shifnal, Shropshire, she married my Grandfather, Ernest Harold Dyke born 4 Aug 1888 in Langley Burnell, Chippenham, Wiltshire & 7 Jan 1973. They married Dec 1912 Bristol, Avon. My Grandfather with his wife & three children settled in Northfield, Birmingham (two of the children were born in Bristol and the other in Birmingham) and in 1950 moved and settled in Shifnal, Shropshire. I was born in Blackheath.
My Great Grandparents were William Norman born 20 Jan 1848 in Heddington, Wiltshire & died 15 Dec 1917 and Mary Ann Hunt born 13 June 1849 Mile Clen, Wiltshire & died Feb 1932. They Married 10 April 1871.
I have hit a brickwall in trying to research my Grandmother's brother, Charles John Norman born 4 Mar 1891 in Tytherton, Wiltshire, I know he married, his wife's name was Ginnie (I would think this is a shortened name for Virginia). I cannot find a marriage record for them and therefore no children, I am assuming the marriage took place after 1911 since it doesn't appear on the 1911 Census. I think they settled in the black country during the 30's / 40's. I do know from memory that Uncle Charles lived in Droitwich, Worcester and probably died there. I would also like to trace any living relatives.
Can anyone help?

Welcome to the forum. We try to keep this section just for introductions so I'm copying it to the General Discussion section where it may garner more responses.
Currently investigating the Hillmans of Sussex.
