This might be a useful site for you: http://hometown.aol.*co.uk/KevinAsplin/home.html (remove *) I did have a quick look without finding a Ralph Goodall, but that's not to say there isn't anything relevant for you. Christine |

It's easier to find someone if they died I'm afraid. You could try the commonwealth war graves commission site. www(.)cwgc(.)org Or if you knw where he was living he might be listed on a roll of honour, try www(.)roll-of-honour(.)com Good luck June |

Hi there just a thought. Could he have joined the services? My grandad was in South Africa in the Boer War for the 1901 census and wasn't discharged until 1913. Good luck June |

I used wildcards and just entered Good* Ral* Male 23 */- 5 and got: Ralph Goodale 24 Berks Reading London Kensington Mariner Seas Ralph Goodall 20 Derbys Ashburne Chester Chester Blacksmiths Stricker Ralph Goodall 28 Tedd Cambridge Essex Walthamstow Carpenter Ralph Goodchild 21 Westbeck Norfolk Norfolk Norwich Auctioners Clerk Ralph Goodearl 19 Bucks H Wycombe Buckinghamshire Wycombe Grocer Ralph Goodfellow 21 Somerset Frome Somerset Frome Drapers Assistant Ralph Goodman 19 Northampton Islip Northamptonshire Finedon Painter House Ralph Goodman 24 Durham Street House Yorkshire Anlaby Hackney Cart Man Ralph Goodridge 20 Yorks Heck W Riding Of Yorkshire Kellington Blacksmiths Apprentice Ralph Goodwin 18 Birmingham Birmingham Aston Shearer Rolling Mill Ralph Goodwin 18 London St Lukes City Road Essex East Ham School Teacher Ralph Goodwin 18 Newcastle On Tyne Durham Westgate Bricklayer Labourer Ralph Goodwin 19 Staffre Silverdale Stafford Silverdale Coal Miner Under Ground Ralph Goodwin 23 Durham Crook Durham Towlaw Coalminer Stoneman Ralph Goodwin 24 Gloucest Cheltenham Of Birmingham Birmingham Blacksmith There's one who's from 'Heck' but a bit young, and the wrong name-ending. It might still be worth a look at the image, judging by the standards of transcription for which the 1901 is notorious! Christine |
