SEARLE FAMILY RESEARCH

Updated Dec 2008

Tracing Robert Searle's ancestoral path is proving rather difficult

I have a newspaper cutting from the Second World War, in which he celebrates his 50th Wedding Anniversary with his wife Mary nee Smith.. Her background/parents/relatives is CLEAR!!!...

.. Abt the Marriage:
Robert Albert Searle age 26, weds Mary Ann Frances Tracey Smith age 19 (who can possibly have a problem researching her name!) on Dec 25 1889 at the Parish Church of St John Fitzroy Square in the County of London.. (problem arises here...) His father is noted as Albert Searle (deceased) "Soldier"..

Witness to marriage are Thomas (Mary's father) and "LOTTIE MAUD MARY ANN ENTWISLE!" (I was rather hoping she would be a clue, a relative of Robert Searle).. but my investigations so far, have drawn a blank...
