[the celt]

Hello fellow celts,
This is a long shot but you never know,
I am trying to find my grandmothers sister
her name was/is Joyce Wintle, she was
born in India (be in her 90's now) and in the 1940's moved to Wales,
her fathers name was Edmund Fitzharding Wintle.
Her sister my Gran maidan name is Matidla Rhoda Wintle.
Thanks for your help
as i said long shot
but you never know.

Using www.192.com there is 1 Joyce Wintle listed in Wales, but I think you have to be a subscriber to get date of birth, address etc.

I'm not a subscriber and I don't know anyone that is.

Lots of information here - http://www.findmypast.com/home.jsp but you'll have to register and then pay to retrieve information.
Good luck.

My wife has been looking up her family of late, so she may have a few ideas. Will ask her to look in later.

Taff you should use BT.com

I found 6 'Wintles' just by searching 'Wintle' within the post code area of 'CF'
and another 2 in 'NP
all with numbers and addresses'

Hope that helps a bit

Ok lads getting very close here
so this is what i have found out in India
Joyce married William Richard Davies who
was a sargent with the Welsh Regiment
stationed in Baird Barracks, Bangalore, India
on the 1st Nov 1941.
Again I know its a long shot but you never know,
only got about another 8 weeks left in India
so any info would be great.
thanks
joe

Hi Celt,

I looked at http://www.armymuseums.org.uk/amot-...t&Service=Museum-Display&reference=0000000145 which lead me to this http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/militaryhistory/army/step7.htm which lead me on to this http://www.veterans-uk.info/service_records/service_records.html.

However with data protection nowadays it could be an uphill struggle.

As you can imagine Bill Davies is not a rare name in Wales.

Good Luck.

PS the Welsh Regiment museum is based in Cardiff Castle
