Kacy

if you buy a copy of Nellie's birth certificate here:

https://tinyurl.com/y9x5f4om

it will tell you her parents' names and also the date and place of their marriage.

Quote the details given in Andy's post above.

It will cost you £12.

Don't know if this means anything but this couple were married in Paisley, Renfrewshire which is not that far from Gourock which used to be in Renfrewshire.

Of course, it could be a total coincidence and the only way to be sure is to buy the BC.

Was Nellie an only child?

no mum had a brother is name was bil thank you all for the info that is very helpful <3 <3 <3

I don't see a William Ridgeway born in Cornwall.

In Scotland, there was a William Edward Ridgeway born 1920 in Kirkcudbrightshire - nowhere near Gourock..

You really need Nellie's birth cert, Kacy.

There is also this birth. Miles away from Cornwall or Gourock!

Births Mar 1922 (>99%)
Ridgeway William E Thomas Thornbury 6a 459

There is one who married in Bristol in 1946. Is this your uncle?
