There's no corresponding birth or marriage - are you sure of her forenames?

Do you know who she married?

Do you know her parents' names?

Hi Jude, I thought she was born in Newport (can't find the birth though) and possibly married in Haverfordwest.

Yes but there is a Newport in Pembrokeshire, not far from Haverfordwest :-)

This is the only birth that comes up for Violet (one of twins)

Births Mar 1928 (>99%)
Fennell Edwin J G Elmes Wandsworth 1d 985

Jude

But she married in Wandsworth too :-(

Jude

I guess we'll just have to wait for Shirley to get back and clarify what she does know about Violet. :-) :-)

This is on https://www.myheritage.com/names/george_sturley so it looks like it is the correct people.

George Walter Sturley was born on month day 1922, at birth place, to James-Wilfred Sturley and Margaret-Phillipa Sturley (born Edwards).
James-Wilfred was born on September 1 1885, in Dale.
Margaret-Phillipa was born on November 14 1896, in PEMBROKE Dyfed Wales.
George had 3 siblings: Mary Dando (born Sturley) and 2 other siblings.
George married Violet may Sturley (born Fennell).
Violet was born Circa August 12 1927, in NEWPORT Gwent Wales.
They had 3 children: Thomas Sturley and 2 other children.
George passed away on month day 1986, at age 63 at death place.

Was there a previous thread somewhere, as the name Violet m Fennell sounds familiar? ( edit yes another site I think, I looked for the probate record).

There is definitely no birth to match in Newport, Monmouthshire. There are several Fennel births with mmn Nicholas, Fogwill, Thomas, O'Brien and Counsell. But no Violet. There is an Edna M in December 1927 (mmn Nicholas)

Shirley do you have any idea on her mother's name???

Born in 1927 she could have been adopted as that's when official adoption started

You may have better luck finding info if you have her father's name from the mariage cert..You may then find the family on the 1939 register

Well they haven't picked up George's death this looks Iike his family although mum is down as Phyllis maybe a derivative of her second name of Philippa
