Guest saz Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Hi am new to this forum. I'm trying to trace any family members by the name of Yates. Kenneth Yates, Patrick Stuart Yates. Both from chesterfield originally I think but lived in Sheffield a long time (1940's- 2000). I know they were both married although I don't know who to. Kenneth was Patrick's father. Patrick was born in 1937 and went in the army from the age of 18. He also worked on the fair when he left the army. That's all I know An help or info would be amazing. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HughW Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Patrick's entry in the birth index lists his mother's maiden name as BUNTING. I believe this is Kenneth's marriage: GRO Marriage SEP Qtr 1937 Kenneth YATES Emily BUNTING Chesterfield 7b 2295 There are three other births besides Patrick's which are likely (but not definitely) children of this couple: Richard H YATES SEP Qtr 1939 Chesterfield mmn BUNTING Kenneth YATES SEP Qtr 1940 Chesterfield mmn BUNTING Barbara YATES DEC Qtr 1942 Chesterfield mmn BUNTING Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad (Patrick) was born in Chesterfield in March 1937 and I think had a younger brother called Richard, dunno about any sisters or any other brothers though. Can I ask where you got this information? I'm basically trying to find out about my dads' life before me. I know he was married before he married my mother and want to know if I might have any brothers or sisters out there that I didn't know about.
