Not described as deceased... I've been told he existed by the family.. They just don't know anything more about them.. Thank you for the suggestion though :-)

KathleenBell

KathleenBell Report 24 Feb 2015 00:25

Have you thought that she may have been born illegitimate and just made up a father's name for her marriage (to save face with the in-laws?

Was her father still alive when she married or was he described as "deceased".?

You'll probably need to wait for 1921 census to find info about her

You can't be sure that she was born where she married

I found a Monica Edith smith in foleshill 1912 but mum's name is smith which wasnt very helpful!

alviegal

alviegal Report 23 Feb 2015 20:24

If she was born in 1912, you should know what her mother's maiden name was from her birth certificate and then look for the parents' marriage.

Is this her death?
