Ann replied to a PM a bit early today. Unfortunately she is finding the boards/threads a little confusing, In this instance, she's inadvertantly posted in 2 different places - 3 if you count the Tracey Beard thread.

I can't find a birth of a Philip Ward with a mother's maiden name that matches the maiden name of any of the women who married men by the name of George H. Ward. There were quite a few marriages for that name in Birmingham.

I also can't find a marriage for your grandparents although on the 1911 census they say they have been married 14 years (which would make it around 1897).

Was your father born in Birmingham?

This looks like the family in the 1911 census (people's birth years are often out by a few years):-

Also my father married a woman and had a child called Philip Ward before he married my mother in 1962 Violet Tyler,not sure what his first wife's name was but i think Philip would of been born between 1940 and.1952 I think can anyone help please regards Ann
