Would love to make contact with anyone that has the surname WYLYE (unusual spelling) to see if they can help with a search for an ancestor Agnes Mary Wylye adopted in 1927. Her birth name was Audrey May Barratt. |

Hello Gins, Dea, Malyon. Thanks for your help but I already know all the above info. I would just love to find out about the family presumably surnamed Wylye that adopted Agnes. I just seem to have hit a brick wall. She led a sad life really. She was adopted at birth as her mother was married and had 3 other children. Then her birth mother who was my husband's grandmother died of kidney failure when she was about 3 and a few weeks later her birth father died of TB. She married Bath-Jones but had no children and then died in a nursing home aged 51 of multiple sclerosis. The surname WYLYE is on her marriage certificate and on her death certificate - other than that I there is no other clue. Her birth parents were well to do so there must have been a scandal there. She sadly seems to not have been acknowledged by any of the Barratt or Rowe families. I just hope her adoptive parents were kind. |

There are only 4 people with the surname Wylye on the 1939 register. Three of them are in the same household in Bethnal Green. The other is in Shoreditch. No closed records in either household. It looks like the family that adopted her must have their surname Mistranscribed in 1939. |

Hi all.....thanks for your help.Yes the name WYLYE is given on her marriage and death certificate so that was definitely the way she spelt it, In the space for father on her marriage certificate its just got deceased and for the witnesses they all came from the Bath-Jones family who I have been in touch with the descendants and they do not know anything because of the time lapse. |
