Find Ancestors

I don't have a FMP sub to see all the details, but I can post this:

Stone Household
Droitwich R.D., Worcestershire, England

William Ewart Stone 1911
Leafa Evelyn Stone is also on this record
6 more people who are officially closed

So they may have had 6 children (though some of the closed records may have been other adults in the household).

FreeBMD shows a daughter Stone, mms Mitchell, born Droitwich 1939 (2nd qr).

There are two other Worcestershire births, Stone/Mitchell, 1933 and 1937, but not in Droitwich.

Address in 1939 No 1 Church View Cottages Hartlebury , Droitwich R.D., Worcestershire, England
There are some covered details underneath so could be children
His occupation from transcript .General Yard Labourer & Bu Electric Porcelain Mfrs

PS to my earlier post:

I see William and Leafa were married 1937, so the 1933 birth probably isn't their child.

But they were married in Kidderminster, and the 1937 birth is in Kidderminster, so is likely their daughter.

Looking at births surname Stone mothers maiden name Mitchell in Droitwich, Worcestershire, England there are 6 first in 1939 last in 1948. Not putting details as they could well be living and may or may not be their children (would need the certificates to confirm)

Ancestry shows several possible births after 1939 - in Droitwich - Stone / Mitchell:

son 1944, son 1943, twin boys 1946, daughter 1941.

Thank you both for this information on William and his family.

Kay and Greyghost I thank you very much (and a Happy New Year) to you both for this information.

My Dad always said his Brother joined the Worcesters.
