I am trying to find family of Barbara A Jones who married Philip S Greenhill in Malvern in 1972.having kept house for him and his 2 children Ann and Ian after their mother died. I found a Barbara A Jones in the family..a child of Tudor Jones born 1925 who was brother of Philips mother, but that would make them cousins. |

Was Philip born 1915 - died 1983? |

I know nothing of Barbara..Philip was born 1915 Croydon and died 1983 in Birmingham. They married in 1972. I do not know if Barbara A Jones (Greenhill) is still alive but she would be about 90 now. |

If Barbara Jones was related to Philip her father was Tudor Jenkyn Jones |

To look for her with any degree of certainty, you need to get the marriage cert, for her stated age, her second forename, and father's details |

Will her fathers name be on the marriage certificate? If so I could order it. |

Tudor Jenkyn Jones was born in 1888 in Ipswich |

if Tudor was her father then Barbara and Philip are cousins.As he needed someone he could trust to look after his children when their mother was sick and died it would seem that a female family member would be the choice. Therefore his uncle`s unmarried daughter Barbara who he finally married later in life after divorced from his first wife Eileen Marsden. Seems to make sense of the hints from family in the past. |

The marriage certificate will prove whether the family hints, and your suppositions are correct! |

I thought Barbara was the second child of Tudor and Gladys Jones..what is the reason for the record to be closed in 1939...she would have been about 10? I have ordered a marriage cert for Philip and Barbara so will see what that shows. |

The record is closed because she was not known to have died by the time they stopped updating (about 1991, I believe) |

There is no birth record for Barbara A Jones with MMN Williams to fit the year of birth recorded on the woman's death entry |
