Was Mabel Page her maiden name?
Colaville seems to be in Leicestershire, but the only two 1913 births are



Mabel Page 1913 Jan-Feb-Mar mmn Varey Sculcoates Yorkshire - East Riding
View Record
Mabel Page 1913 Jan-Feb-Mar mmn Cockman Ware Hertfordshire

or if it wasn't registered until 1914
Mabel P Page 1914 Jan-Feb-Mar mmn Kavanagh Lichfield Staffordshire

Which war did she write about? You say she was a girl. She would have been a VERY young girl in WW1 & not a girl in WW2.

Do you think there's any chance she could be the Mabel Hookham I found in Greenwich?

Does the Albert Page/Mabel Hookham marriage seem right?

Steve

What year (roughly) was her eldest child born? and do you know his/her name?

Do you know ANY names of her children?

If we find a birth for any of her children,you can buy the birth cert and that will tell you her maiden name (name before marriage)

Something to ponder over?

I was looking for 'Page' births from 1932 onwards...either Ashby Z or Coalville.......

Found this..
Derick Page
1932 quarter 3
Asby Z.
7a
187
MMN 'Holland'

I then looked for a birth of Mabel Holland 1914 Q1.(nothing on Q4 1913)

Mabel A. Holland
1914 Q1
Newcastle T.
10b
322
MMN 'Braithwaite'

What do you think?

will look some more a little while longer......

Gerri, I'm not sure her age is correct. If she was born Dec 1913 then she would hav been 1-5 during WW1, how many memories have you got of that age? Enough to win an award?

Ozi.

MrsBucketBouquet

MrsBucketBouquet Report 9 Apr 2008 20:48

That looks like it!

I searched from 1931 through to and including 1937.
There were NO Page births in 'Coalville'

So my guess is...it's Mabel Holland?

Hi Ozi

God knows!

We will have to wait untill Steve comes back to us.......

...maybe with some answers this time!

Ozy

I just had a thought!.....

If thats her husbands death in 1990...his birth was 13th April 1911...so her birth year MUST be right?

Steve also said that she had an Uncle that fought in the trenches....this tells me WW1....

...So I think she must have won her award for something in WW2
