These are from the 1939 register who could fit in an age bracket.knowing his age in 1918 would help..
Also if Emily May remarried it may help give a timeline to any re-marriage for Thomas.

Message sent to return to thread,


Good Luck Dorothy with newly found relatives.

This appears to be the telephone number:

Our head office

If you would like to contact any of the teams at our head office in London please call 020 7841 4400.

Our address is:
The Children's Society

Some information which may/may not help: my relative was connected with the Waifs and Strays Society - also went to Canada to work on a farm. To get further information on my uncle I wrote to The Children's Society, Edward Rudolph House, Margery Street, London, WC1X 0JL.
They were very helpful - you may like to contact them as they held the information on my uncle - from his inclusion with the Waifs and Strays Society and it gave me the background to his early life.
There were forms to complete and you may be required (as I was) to give information regarding the connection to such a person or persons, but I found it well worth the effort.
I am not in England, but if you are, a quick call would give an answer to any query you may have as to whether they hold any information on your family member or not.
Good luck.
Peahen
p.s. I am sorry I do not have a phone number for the Society, but it may be in a telephone book.

"Looking for relatives of Emily May Oakley born 1892 in Montgomeryshire, Shropshire, England. My father, William Norman Oakley, born in 1916 in Oswestry, Shropshire was her son. There is no father's name on his birth certificate."

I take it this is the person that contacted you? It sounds as if they have the birth certificate.
