Notes

  • Cecil N Parsons - Research notes.

    Aunt Connie remembered the year Cecil died as 1963 at age 78.

    Connie was born in 105 Connor Road, Dagenham on 26 Apr 1932.

    Connie & Ken remember tales of Cecil being born in Bude Cornrwall and being one of TWINS (Birth location was later disproven by records, Cecil's father however was born in Bude and Cecil was one of Twins, the other died)

    Son Ken advised David Bridge verbally that Cecil fought in the Battle of Jutland in WW1, Ken didn't have any details regarding which ship Cecil was on (later found in WW1 Military records).
    Ken also advises that Cecil "ran away" at about 14 and joined the Navy.
