Trying to find Osborne

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

My grandfather was Alfred George Osborne born 1904 in Edmonton, Middx. He had a brother Fred and sisters Minnie Beatrice and May. He may also have had a step sister called Nellie. His parents were Henry Alexander and Ellen Osborne. Ellen's maiden name was Drake and she was previously married to a Mr Smith. No other details about him! I have been unable to go back further than this. The family seem to have been in the St Pancras area of Middx. Would love to hear if anyone can help! I have since found out that Henry Alexander Osborne was born in 1879 in Aldershot, Hants. He was the youngest of 8 children, 2 born India, 1in Dover, kent, 2 in Ireland and 2 in Aldershot, Hants. Their dad was a soldier so that explains the travelling. Dad was Robert Osborne born 1842, Marylebone, London. He married Catherine who was born in India. If you have any Osborne ancestors born in Marylebone, PLEASE get in touch
