by slowhands , proud of his ancient Dean Forest roots, Wednesday, May 01, 2013, 17:21 (4013 days ago) @ Roger Griffiths

Frank Griffiths was born 1877 on Bradley Hill, Soudley. He was an elder brother of my grandfather. I never found out whether he got married, had a family, died, despite trawling through the heavy indices at the GRO in London going back 25 years amongst other searches.

Yesterday, I may have found a marriage. Frank Griffiths and Lottie Wilks (born abt. 1898) (Ruardean)June Qtr. 1919 Westbury on Severn 5a737. Franks father James was deceased 1901.

I would be grateful if someone could verify this marriage and anything else.
