GEORGE SHORTT

I am looking for the parent's of George Shortt Born 27 06 - 1905 in Barnbrugh Yorkshire
Yorkshire births register No Barn/57/55 and GRO Vol 9c Page 845. George married Sabra Padget in Apr - Jun -1928 in Barnsley Yorkshire and died March 1966 in Barnsley Vol 2b Page 62. I have searched for the 1911 census for George but no luck.
My very best wishes.
Fred Wheatcroft.

Re: GEORGE SHORTT

Fred,
The GRO index indicates his mmn was Pashley and that their first child was born in q4 1895. Their earlier children (than George) were born in different places in Yorkshire (Rotherham, Hemsworth, Doncaster)
William Henry Shortt married Martha Ellen Pashley in q4 1894 in Sheffield, from Free BMD

Re: GEORGE SHORTT

Fred,
In addition to the children shown in the 1911 census they had 3 other children, according to GRO index.
They were Benjamin born and died 1902 in Hemsworth, Edith Nellie born and died 1904 in Rotherham and William Henry born and died 1908 in Doncaster. Please note that Benjamin's death reg is under the spelling Short not Shortt.
