I am looking to find descendants of Albert Courtney in my quest to establish the origins of his grandfather Arthur/George?William Courtney/Courtenay http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Courtney-412 My brick wall ancestor?

I have been unable to find any marriage or death records for Albert so do not know f there are any living descendants.  If you are related please contact me.

I would be grateful if anyone can find a marriage or death record for either Albert or his aunt Alberta http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Courtney-411

There is also a Albert E Courtney b1886 listed in 1939 register.  Widowed and living with 2 others presumably children living in St Pancreas London..  More likely to be mine.  

He might have married in 1911 Mar quarter, possible wives, Florence H Croxon, or Beatrice G Dyer.  But this also seems unlikely given he is listed in 1911 census as single and living with his grandmother, the census was taken on 2 April 1911.

From a tree on Ancestry, there is a liklihood that Albert George Courtney was born 1842, Shoreham, Sussex (Steyning Sussex 7/412 q November 1842)

In 1851, living in Steyning with parents & siblings.

George Courtney 47
Sarah Courtney 35
Eleanor Courtney 13
Mary Courtney 10
George Courtney 8
 
In 1861, he was serving with Vessels,  "Two Sisters", Pembury Docks ,Wales. He was a "Veritor Engineer Apprentice".

Thanks Ron, but I think you will find that that is George.  I have his birth certificate, but haven't proven that he is the grandfather of Albert.  He is the main contender for Albert's grandfather in theory #1.  You might be actually looking at my tree!

Thanks Frank, that is helpful
Good to hear. My Williams line goes back to Wales and the time of Oliver Cromwell.
This Albert Paice is B1904 and is still alive in 1939 Register, living with Mona and 2 others (presumably children).  Birth is registered as Basingstoke, so not my Albert.
