As Arnold Lord is a widower on the 1939 Register........the 2 closed records might be 2 of his children.

Yes correct marriage malyon & PricklyHolly

Prickly Holly
You could be right about Arnold Lord never occured it might have been something to do with him.

I was told how true .... that John and Ada had twin girls Marian and Joan but no luck trying to find them so im assuming they were born after 1910 as they had a brother William born that year

Manchester born

If this is John and Ada on the 1911 census........

8 children born and living (All 8 children are on the census)


There are no births registered for a Marian or Joan Flitcroft, with MMN Parry after 1911

Even looking at Flitcroft births registered between 1910/1911.........there are no Marian and Joan twins born in that time frame.

Census is right

Harold is actually Charles Harold Flitcroft which is the line im doing which i have researched but his daughter Laura never knew her grandparents but said her father had sibling Marian and Joan

I cannot find anything so maybe she got it wrong thanks for your help

Perhaps they were cousins of Charles Harold- have you followed the older brothers to see the names of their children?

Or perhaps they were related by marriage?

There is often a little truth somewhere in the memories, it's just they get a little distorted along the way. Frustrating trying to unpick it all!
