You should remove the actual D O B of the son who may be alive.

You are breaking site rules, and invading his privacy

Having said that, there isn't a birth on freebmd to tally with your info - nor is there a death for Roger I on freebmd

The only Roger A J is in a different year and the MMN isn't Holmes

So, please remove his DOB, as he clearly isn't connected to your relative

Have you done any checking of the info you quote?

Seems perhaps you haven't been able to......................

Felicity has him listed as her father in her tree on Genes with his name as Roger Alfred Gordon Rothwell born 1920 but but Rachel the daughter of Felicity has him listed only as Roger born in 1925. Both have no place of birth. Roger would have been Rachel’s grandfather.
Both Felicity and Rachel’s trees are not active anymore.

Someone called Jennifer has a Roger Rothwell born 1921 in her GR tree - but no middle initials listed, and no POB.


The Roger born in Bolton in 1921 may have married in Bolton in 1949.
Seems to have had two children born in Macclesfield, and may have been living in Macclesfield per 2009 ER.
No middle initials on marriage nor ER.

The only mention of Roger Alfred Gordon Rothwell that I can find is in army records:

Roger Alfred Gordon Rothwell (224655)


Can't see a definite birth or death for him.

What made you particularly pick up on that name? Is he named on one of the children's birth certs?


The only Roger Rothwell birth I can see around the time you say is this one - but no middle initials:

Births Sep 1921 (>99%)
Rothwell Roger Beardsworth Bolton 8c 822

Sorry. My mistake
Looked on Free b.m.d and information says her surname at death was Holmes so maybe she didn’t marry or they divorced and she went back to her maiden name.

Her children were Felicity Freya Fleur born in Bury Lancashire 1947.
Roger Igor Manfred Peter born 1948 also in Bury
Roger Anthony John born 1950 but in Gravesend. Kent.

The 1st Roger must have died before 1950.
Mash

no, birth cert of renees child :-)

I did think of that Maddie so yes I think I would be better to get the birth certificate of Renee.

1939
17 Rhiwlas Drive, Bury C.B., Lancashire, England

Renei Rothwell (Holmes) 07 May 1923 Female At School Single 129 3
The record for this person is officially closed. Can I get around this?

maybe tthey never married

do you have the birth cert of the child to give fathers details

Renee Holmes was born in Preston Lancashire in 1923 and died in County Durham 1966 aged 43.
Her parents were John Holmes and Ethel nee Anyon. Renee married Roger Rothwell or Roger Alfred Gordon Rothwell sometime before 1947 as their first child was born that year in Bury Lancashire.
I’ve looked on the Lancs. b.m.d but can’t find anything relating to their marriage.

There are two other people in Genes with her in their tree but the trees aren’t active anymore so I can’t get in touch.

I would be grateful if someone could help in finding the correct name of Roger where and when they married and also a possible death for Roger.
I don’t know where and when Roger was born other than 1925c
Thank you.
