Hi, i'm trying to find the birth and death of my great grandfather Frederick Talbot. I have found his marriage certificate which was 1921 and it says he was 30, which would put his birth at around 1891, but i can't find any evidence of that matching. Also i have reason to believe that he died around 1956, i believe either in staffordshire or shropshire these events took place.
If anyone can help me then i would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Tracy

If he was born in 1891 then he would be around 66yrs at death, assuming he died in the mid fifties

I have checked 1954 thru to 1958 inc... no relevant deaths for frederick Talbot

I see you now say he died 1953.........

Wellington is in Somerset, is the death Cassy has found likely?

Oh, my geograpy is rubbish mind you, I had to google

If there is a Wellington in Shropshire then that death looks promising
