Rule out Edna M - she married a Gordon Young and died in IOW

The only Violet May born in Newport at the right time was Tester (there is also an entry for Lester same ref)

We need Shirley to come back and say whether she knows Violet's parents' names...and whether she named a father on her marriage certificate.

I have followed up on Violet May Tester 1927 and there is no record of her that I can find after 1927 or her mum.

Mother Mary Ann Tester born Newport 1887 to Frederick Tester 1862 London died 1936 Newport and Emma Tripp 1864 -1891 Newport.

He married Sarah Ann Hurley born @ 1879 married 1913.She was daughter of Sarah Tripp 1848 sister to Emma Tripp.

So could this be her and adopted by the Fennell family??

Mary - thanks for following this up...my thoughts entirely....

Only the marriage certificate is going to throw any light - if at all - on this one :-)

Thanks for coming back Shirley...only way forward is to get the marriage certificate and see what she gave as a father's name...
