Parish records, but I haven't tried to check them yet.

Looking at the bmd, this could be the parents:

Births Sep 1886 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Screaton George Alfred Barrow S. 7a 173

Births Jun 1900 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Screaton May Passingham Barrow S. 7a 172


But I'm not sure about that tree. I have a link to Barrow upon Soar parish records, I'll try to find it & post up.

I assumed that Frances and Rose were illegitimate as they had no separate Father's name (Rose just popped up on a quick search)

yes ive come across this but it had father as unknow and i wondered why the children had there mothers name,do you know of any reasons why this would be?

Flip

Flip Report 13 Aug 2012 20:35

According to the tree the parents are George Alfred Screaton (b1886) and May Passingham Screaton (1900 - 1978) but I can't find a marriage for them. And the births of the children give mmn as Screaton??

Sorry, but no Rose or Harold - but the living siblings are hidden.

There's Violet 1920 - 2003, Beatrice 1924 - 2010 and George Alfred 1932 - 2001.

yes i know of the 3 daughters to widdowson,i just wondered if the rumours of her re-marry and having more children were true and its appears to be.

Was there a Rose on the sibling list? and a harold?

thanks flip x

A tree on ancestry confirms that dob and death. It shows 6 siblings for Frances, 3 of which have died by now.

Births from the second marriage should show Screaton as the maiden name. Looks like she had 3 daughters to Widdowson between 1956 & 1959.

patchem-yes i have tried to contact a few people on genes to see if they are close relatives,im just waiting on some replys.

Kay thank you yes that makes sense thank you x

Isobell

Isobell Report 13 Aug 2012 20:06

thank you patchem just seen you found her death entry,her daughters believed she was 39 at her death so that is very likely her x

Kay????

Kay???? Report 13 Aug 2012 20:04

Hi Isobel.

Not in this instance as when she re-married Widdowson was her actual surname, after divorce many women revert back to their maiden name and if Frances had done it would have shown as Frances Screaton.married Mr K Jones.

Her headstone just shows she was initially Frances Screaton.

Hope this clears that bit up for you.

patchem Report 13 Aug 2012 20:03

There looks to be a Jones/Screaton birth in 1968.

Will pm it.

Have you contacted anyone else on genes who has Frances in their trees?

Isobell

Isobell Report 13 Aug 2012 20:00

if she had children in the second marriage would they be linked to help maiden name (screaton( or now married name (jones or her first married name (widdowson).?

Isobell

Isobell Report 13 Aug 2012 19:58

oh that explains why i couldnt find anothe possible marriage x

patchem

patchem Report 13 Aug 2012 19:56

No, most people have the second marriage using their current first married surname, not maiden name.
