I just checked the marriage in 1929 and it was in W Ham Essex. I have found a birth of Brian J Day 1930 3rd Qtr Romford 4a 887
Romford is also essex so could this be a sibling?

Hi Irene, No death certificate of either parent Im afraid. Luckily she was given her birth certificate which states her mother and father
Jessie Maud Crosby - Horace Day.

As her birth was in Bath and her parents family were in the Barking area she thinks maybe her parents evacuated.

Many thanks Rose

From 1911 mothers' maiden names were listed on records.

I am trying to help a friend look for her family. My friend Penelopes' maiden name is Day. She was born in 1944 in Bath.
Her mother Jessie Maud Day died a couple of years after she was born.

She can remember nothing of her very early years only that she went to live with her grandmother in the Barking area. She lost her grandmother and eventually went to live in Dr Barnardos home.

She knows she had at least 3 brothers, Alfred ,John and Roger
but no idea of birthdates or where they went to live. She would dearly like to be able to trace them although she knows there is a great likelihood that one or two of them could have passed on.
She was the youngest sibling and believes there was a number of years between the other children being born till herself in 1944.

Her mother was Jessie Maud Crosby and we have found a marriage to Horace Day Dec qtr 1929.

Can someone please tell me if all the births only show the mothers maiden name as I can only find one child born in 1930 with the mothers name as Crosby on freebmd although I am aware that not all names are listed. Thank goodness for volunteers!

If there is anybody that can help in any way we would be so grateful.

Thank you Rose
