steve fuller Posted 25 July , 2005 Share Posted 25 July , 2005 Hi Pals Would anyone be so kind as to look these two guys up please? CO - E.W. Brighten (born 1880s?) 2/Lt - R.D.J. Brighten (younger brother of the above, born around 1890s?) A book I have says that in 1915 they are Biggleswade men & would welcome any extra info from the census to confirm please. Many thanks Pals Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinglma Posted 25 July , 2005 Share Posted 25 July , 2005 Steve 1901 census shows younger brother only aged 8 - name is Ralph Dalton Jarvis? Biggleswade as you say, son of William Green Brighten born Norwick c 1839. With the latter bit of information its possible to find Edgar W Brighten in Prittlewell, Essex aged 10. Yet to find him on 1901. If you want full transcriptions let me know - they'll take a few minutes as they are fairly big households. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
