vera was born in hull east yorrkshire 1922 and married a canadian soldier in the same town year 1951 she then emigrated tocanada my quest is to find the maiden name of her mother the surname was B rown iff i find her first name i am on the way to solving my problem regards kathy

Buy Vera's birth cert..........the mother's full name will be recorded on it

BUT....if she's your cousin, surely you know the name of one of her parents? Her father, presumably, as you don't know her mother's name.............

Who was he?

Look for a marriage betweeen him and a female Brown

If you are sure that Vera Hunter is your cousin, you would be wise to obtain her birth cert...............when you do, and if you need further assistance, please update this thread
