Do you have any certs to suggest her maiden name was Lambert?

Any idea of when they married and where?

Putting this on the off-chance that Rita might be marguerite - yes, I know it's a long shot!

wow,how did you find that out,thankyou,im really knew to this

Got a problem

If son David T (?) was born in 1926 in Coventry then I am not sure that Lambert was her maiden name. Possible birth has Brotherton as mothers maiden name


Oh bother that couple are probably Grace Brotherton and John Shaw

Going to agree with the info posted by Brummiejan

I worked backwards from your birth and got to the same David M H Shaw
