Surnames: Rolfe, Kimbell
I am trying to trace my Greatgrandfather Leonard Rolfe who was American.
All I have containing any of his information is his marriage certificate; Married in Eastbourne, England 11.11.1914 to Hilda Annie Kimbell, he was aged 29 and an Insurance Superintendent, his address was 49 Firle Road, Eastbourne. His father, Michael, was a Shipstore Merchant.
Leonard & Hilda lived in Eastbourne until 1917 when they moved to Shirland Road,Paddingon,London. They had 5 children Edward, Betty, Peggy, Cyril(my GF) and (Amy) Vera between 1915 & 1922, they divorced at some point and Leonard remarried.
He was said to have served in the US Army Medical Dental Corps, which would explain his untraceable migration, but possibly deserted. There is no trace of him on the 1911 England census.
Any advice or information would be gratefully received.
