So that isn't any help at all as it would appear that neither of her half sisters married.

Hi Everyone
Just a quick update. The GRO cannot find the 1935 death certificate either! They are now investigating the possibility of the 1955 entry being mine. They would not even look at the idea that it may have been transcribed incorrectly, but it has now been ordered (and paid for!) so they will now look at it. Will post as soon as I hear anything.

Hope it turns out to be the right one for you Dawn. There is always the chance of human error when records are transcribed - we've all seen the mistakes made on census record transcriptions!!

Good luck.

Thank you all for your suggestions. Today I received the death certificate for the entry in 1955. Definitely not her! Where to go now??? Maybe Scotland? She wasn't born there but her husband was, maybe she is in their records. Other than that I will go down the line of Newcastle records and see if theyy can help. Will update as soon as I can.

Hi Stuart. Thank you so much!!!!! I have spent an age on this lady. She was my husbands paternal grandmother. I will have to go to Scotlands people and make enquiries on how to get a certificate.
Thank you doesn't seem quite enough for the time that you have saved me

Dawn.
