His name was William John West
Born 10th January 1901
Location - not 100% but 90% sure it is Shoreditch (London)

His father was John William West but I have no Mothers details at all.

If anyone could locate him, I'd love to know any details - Mother, siblings, address details etc.

Many thanks

Not sure in 1901 but his Fathers occupation appears as House decorator on a 1925 marriage certificate, so would assume same? I can tell you his Father was born in 1877 so would be around 24 in 1901.

Sorry Jo - I don't believe so - the locations dont stack up here nor the age of the Father (John William) who would have been around 24 in 1901 or 34 in 1911.

Thats looking very optimistic Peter - thanks. My only issue now (having just checked some old notes) is that I dont believe my Grand Father was the eldest child and there is no mention made of any older siblings??? I am told he had sisters/brothers by the name of Philip, Fredrick, Beattrice, Maude & Ernest. Thanks for everyones effort so far :P
