Tarlton in Ashbourne

[Angelaj]

Hi,
I'm trying to trace the parents of my gt. grandfather ROBERT TARLTON. I don't have a definite date of birth but he was married in 1916 to Gertrude Lane. The wedding may have been in Bedfordshire as he later lived in Shefford. I know that he joined the Royal Flying Corps but otherwise I'm struggling a bit with this one as I have so little factual information to go on.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Robert J Tarlton married Gertrude M Lane in Gloucester October-November-December 1916 6a 697.

With this information you can buy a certificate online for £7 from GRO:

http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/

That will tell you his age and his father's name. Then we can look in the 1901 census. There could be two candidates. One, Robert J, aged 7 in London with parents Frederick (a baker) and Alice and four brothers and a sister, another, just Robert, in Derbyshire age 12 with parents Thomas (a coach painter) and Kate, and a younger brother and sister.

Come back when you have the certificate info.

Best wishes,
Pat
