Marcus Grantham

Member of Middle Temple. Father of Adrianne Uziell-Hamilton.

Andrew Behan has established, from the 1939 England and Wales register compiled on the outbreak of WW2, that there was a Marcus Grantham who was a married Barrister at Law residing at 25 Coleman Avenue, Hove, Sussex and that his date of birth was 8 June 1910. We think that's our man.
