The marriage certificate to Mr Clague should give her fathers name so that can be matched with one of the two marriage.1937 &1946.


Either it will be,,,,,,,

William Casson or John Casson.

John and Margaret in Lancaster had a daughter Margaret in 1948 in Lancaster. (mms Thompson)

William and Margaret in Birkenhead had daughter Margaret C in 1948 in Birkenhead. (mms Pringle).
And that's your Margaret, with middle name Clare.

There is a marriage in 1946 to match that birth - see FreeBMD site.

Do you know her father's name?

There's this marriage in the right area:

But there's also this possible Casson marriage::

Hi,

i'm just trying to find Margaret Cassons mother and i'm not sure if i've got it right. I've got it down that her mum is also called Margaret Pringle but now i've seen online that it could of been Margaret Thompson?

Re the death record -
her birth date was 24th June 1948.
She died in the Jan/Feb/March quarter of 1981.
You'd need to buy the cert to find out her exact date of death.


Two Clague births with mms Casson -

one in 1971 in the Wirral reg district; the other in 1973 in west Cheshire reg district.

As these people are almost certainly living, I won't post the details here.
I'll send you a private message - check your email for a message from GenesReunited.

Hi,

this part of the search "CLAGUE MARGARET CLARE 24JE1948 PRESTON/S R 40 2050 "

does that mean she died on the 24th of June?

also "2 Clague births with mother's maiden name Casson on FreeBMD.", do you have the maiden names please? i'm trying to look myself but the freeBMD keeps freezing on me!

Thank you!

ArgyllGran Report 23 Mar 2019 18:51

I don't see the marriage Malyon mentions.

There's one in 1981 in Preston & South Ribble reg ditrict - his name includes his middle initial.

You can see it on FreeBMD.

Someone named Brian J Clague was living in Preston per 2003-4 Electoral Roll

ArgyllGran Report 23 Mar 2019 18:43

You would have to buy a copy of the death cert to find out if it's the correct one or not.

Order from this site:

Quote the ref nos etc which MargaretM has given you.

Do you happen to know if Brian is alive? And also, ive seen the death of Margaret on freeBMD but i wanted to know if there was anything else to prove its a match? She committed suicide so i thought her obituary might have been in the papers etc.

Thank you!

Hi,

I'm at a dead end with this search i'm doing and i'm hoping someone can help.

There was a Margaret Casson born approx 1948 in Wallasey.

She had a child in 1963-65 and the child was put up for adoption and then I am told she married and her surname changed to "Calgue or Clague" and then she passed away approx 1981 in Preston, Lancashire.

I am just wondering if anyone can find info to back this up? I've looked for newpapers/obituaries etc and I can not find her anywhere!

Thank you!
