I have made a previous post on William James Guy on a thread with the same name. Perhaps a mod can link them. That post helped me a lot but it is very long and convoluted.I know about his life but it is really his death/ disappearance that is a mystery.
William James Guy was my uncle. He was born in Bristol in 1895.
William went to USA in 1914 to join an uncle. William then joined the Canadian Contingent WW1 and was invalided out the same Year!
He married Dorothy Morgans in Wales in Dec 1914 and they left to live in Canada, where they spent 7 or 8 years. Dorothy had two children there, who died very young. After William returned in 1922 he and Dorothy divorced.
It is from this point I would like some help if possible
William lost contact from his large family here. They said he ran back to Canada with a rich Irish lady and possibly worked on the Niagara Falls project but recently an elderly relative has said she believes this is not true and that he went to New Zealand about the time of the Napier Earthquake and was never heard of again . Can anyone suggest what I could do now?
With thanks ELMA
