Hi i hope someone can help, i am trying to find what happened to my ggrandfathers brother Harry Bailey
Last record i have is from the 1911 Census which showed :my ggrandfather James George Bailey b 1883 lancaster aged 28 occupation house painter,
his brother Harry Bailey b 1885 age 26
and their mother my gggrandmother Eleanor Jean Bailey aged 52 all living in Levenshulme.
This s one of those stories were my ggrandfather moved to kent and married "beneath him" so all contact was lost with that branch.
i hope someone can help
cheers
steve

James George Bailey b 1883 lancaster
Births Jun 1882
Bailey James George Chorlton 8c 898
You'll definitely need that certificate because he's a direct ancestor.
Then there's...
Births Jun 1884
Bailey Harry Chorlton 8c 910
It's best to build on a firm foundation.
Harry's more accurate date of birth will help you to locate his death. A couple of possibilities are...
Deaths Jun 1913
Bailey Harry 29 Prestwich 8d 408
Deaths Dec 1947
Bailey Harry 63 Stockport 10a 518
I haven't bothered to do an exhaustive search but when you've got the right death certificate you can trace him backwards in the usual way.

Hi Peter,
thanks for that,
i finally recieved his birth certificate which was 1882, but it has added another fun fact now, it seems that his mothers maiden name was Bailey as well!, i found her birth in scotland on scotlands people but now it seems i have 2 completely different Bailey branches to research!!
more fun
thanks again
steve

Hello I have just joined this site. Harry Bailey was my grandfather. He in fact moved to London and married Laura Florence Browne. I would be interested in any information you have especially about Eleanor Jean Bailey.
