    RE; post one / #1.

    Name:
    Joseph Banor (originally Banov when born, but v was mistaken for an r and it became Banor, his mothers name was Fanny Goldberg, his fathers Cassell Emile Banov, although on his marriage cert he says Joseph Banor was his father, this is because he didnt know his father or mother, he was alledgedly brought up by people who were not his parents).

    Shipping company:
    Manchester Liners (this is what my dad said)

    Any coincidence ?

    K.

    Thanks Everyone, certainly the plot thickens Lol

    I think the one from forces reunited was my attempt a few years ago to trace his service history.

    I will have a look at the others, i am visiting UK in March so may take a trip to Kew and see what that comes up with. I also found some references to items at the Manchester Records Office so i will pop there too.

    I am beginning to think

    A: he was an illegitimate child
    B: he told a tall tale about navy service Lol

    Thanks again, will have a look at the suggestions and see if i can find anything further.

    So i have his address when he got married and i think he was living there with my Gran in 1939, i wondered if its possible he registered under the surname of people he lived with?

    Possibly Joseph Cain or Joseph Moloughney

    #42, A&B Distinct possibility...especially if Joseph was the only one of his siblings to be born in the work house, any idea where the rest were born? have you tried the Royal Navy route?

    #43, Louisa, Would really need the exact address to confirm if any of those below are him. Nothing showing for Joseph Moloughney

    Joseph Cain 1917 Liverpool C.B. Lancashire England

    Joseph Cain 1917 Bolton C.B. Lancashire England

    Joseph Cain 1919 Bolton C.B. Lancashire England

    Joseph Cain 1920 Barrow-In-Furness C.B. Lancashire England

    Joseph Cain 1920 Wigan C.B. Lancashire England

    Joseph (P) Cain 1917 Bootle C.B. Lancashire England


    Selected the one born in 1919:*NOT the 24th Sept!

    Cain Household (4 People)
    43 Olaf Street , Bolton C.B., Lancashire, England

    FIRST NAME(S) LAST NAME(S) DOB OCCUPATION
    Joseph Cain 02 Oct 1919 Plumber's Assistant

    Sorry could not find Joseph re Canadian MN either

    Hi Marian.

    The address they lived at was 4 Wiles Street, Gorton Manchester, with the Moloughney and Cain Family.
    I have found a Medal Listing for a Joseph Bonar, but I don't understand it and it does not really give any details as I do not know what the columns mean or the abbreviations. Its from BT 395 National Archives

    Aw, this is not him, i managed to find this Joseph due to the Thornley Reference, he perished on SS River Lugar in 1941 when she was torpedoed by U Boat and sunk 300 miles off the Canary Islands.
