Freebmd is a good free site for births marriages and deaths ,and they are now transcribing in the1920,s
The other records i found on Ancestry that I have an annual sub too.Your info re her dying when your mum was about 15 gave me a starting date and I always go a bit further as a start date and work backwards or forwards as peoples recollections can be a bit out.
Again with your mums birth being 1934 I thought a start date of 1930 was the best place to start.
For these type of searches its a trawl through each year ,qtr by qtr,
Sometimes we hit !BINGO" very quickly

marriage


Dec qtr 1930

Gwendoline M Ousley spouse Tancock Exeter 5 b 230

I would recommend getting the marriage cert cos it will give her dads name and occupation . this will help then in finding her parents names ,which you can verify with the birth cert.
looks like a couple of certs buying!!

Sorry I thought because it was in the boxes above it followed into the ones below, here goes she was called Gwendoline Tancock nee Ousley and married my grandfather thomas tancock she died when my mum was about 15 years old so I have never met her she had two other children Arthur and Jonny. My mum was born in 1934 so it must have ben about 1949 ish My mum cant remember much other than an aunty elsie and cnat remember if it was a burial or cremation

any start would do Birth marriage or death

thank you

I am trying to find details of my grandmothers death in Exeter she was married to thomas Tancock and had three children

I think she must have been born around 1905 give or take 5 years

Any help would be good. I have lots of details of my grandfather thomas but not her.

thank you

Susan
