So very likely she remarried soon after

The references to a second married name isn’t on the 1939 register

And the date of birth on the death record as Corke ties with the 1939 reg detail


Are you sure it’s the same lady ?

ArgyllGran

Thanks for taking the time to look for connections and for finding Patrick.
You are a star

I had found the death above that ErikaH posted and thought I'm never going to fathom all this out.

ErikaH thank you so much I don't know how you do it but you are so clever.
My aunty Polly's real name was Mary

I can't see any married (or claiming to be married) Cushion couple in Liverpool in 1911, who don't have any children, and where the wife's maiden name is Moore.

thats a great idea . im off to see what i can find on Patrick Cushion

Thank you

Perhaps her mother had been married before, in which case her Cushion marriage would be in a different name.


Possible brother??
