I knew Francis was a master carpenter and had worked for Waring And Gillow at Lancaster but didn't know about the Royal Train. All very interesting.

Still sorting the dates out but thank you all for your input.

Another possible:

Name: Annie Elizabeth Carter
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1890
Registration district: Mullingar
Birth Country: Ireland
Volume: 3
Page: 240
FHL Film Number: 101063

EDIT: Not this one- she was born in March

AG- That's her death in 1979:

England & Wales, National Probate Calendar

WILSON, Annie Eliza of 6 Lymm Avenue Lancaster died 15 February 1979 Probate Liverpool 11 April £13746

So - options for her birth - none in Middlesbrough in 1889:

Births Mar 1889 (>99%)
Carter Annie Elizabeth Ecclesall B. 9c 375

Births Dec 1889 (>99%)
Carter Annie Eliza Helmsley 9d 434
Carter Annie Elizabeth Dartford 2a 450
Carter Annie Ellen Epping 4a 298

If the DOB given in 1939 is correct, Annie can't be the 1895 Annie whose birth I posted earlier.

Francis died in Lancaster:

Francis S Wilson
in the England & Wales, Civil Registration Death Index, 1916-2007
Name: Francis S Wilson
Birth Date: abt 1887
Date of Registration: Dec 1967
Age at Death: 80
Registration district: Lancaster
Inferred County: Lancashire
Volume: 10c
Page: 668

I wonder if this is Annie's death, with the month wrong? (Or maybe the month's wrong in 1939):

Annie Elizabeth Wilson
in the England & Wales, Civil Registration Death Index, 1916-2007
Name: Annie Elizabeth Wilson
Birth Date: 17 Nov 1889
Date of Registration: Mar 1979
Age at Death: 89
Registration district: Lancaster
Inferred County: Lancashire
Volume: 40
Page: 1999

I don't know the date of the arrival into US, but as Belgium was invaded 10 May 1940, it could be they were escaping but I don't think there would be a direct route to England?

Lucie from Ostend according to engagement annoucement:

LANCASTER EXPERTS TO THE FORE
In Birmingham, work on the Royal train nearing completion. In about three weeks time it is expected that the job will be complete and the specialists who have been working on it can return to their homes. Returning home to Lancaster will be a contingent of employees from Waring and Gillows who have been responsible for all the woodwork in the principal rooms of seven coaches. At the Lancaster factory the planning and general designing has been in the hands of Mr. Frank Wilson, of 6, Lymm Avenue Scale Hail Lancaster, who for the past three months has been paying regular visits to Birmingham to supervise the work....

Francis S Wilson

Frank Reginald Wilson was born in Lancaster. Lancashire in 1924. His father was Francis Samuel Wilson and his mother nee Carter but can't find a marriage.

Reg as he was know had 2 sisters. Norah 1914 and Eileen 1919, both born in Lancaster. Eileen died aged 15 in 1934 after being involved in a motor accident.

Maybe someone would be kind enough to look for the marriage.
Thank you.

Well the marriage cert will give her age and fathers name which may help

Apart from the daughters birth ,now found, what other info are you looking for ?

Thank you Kathleen.
It could well be her. Certainly Dianne is right.
Makes you wonder why Lucie would come from American to England especially when she originated from Holland. If she is the right one she must have only been about 17 when she married Reg. as he was known. She must have come with her parents.
