You will see in the first part of email that I mention Bristol and I do know they lived there.
Shirley was a nurse at Southmead hospital Bristol and apparently died about 10 years ago.
Unfortunately my aunts are of an age ( in their 90's) and cannot assist too much with info.
Yes, I have tried the BMD indexes and have come up with nothing .

Edmund Parker could have died anytime and anywhere! Have you any idea where they lived or approximately when he died? There are lots of Edmund Parker deaths on Ancestry from 1984-2006 and probably many more before this date. Without more information you won't be able to ascertain which one (if any) is yours.

Have you searched the full BMD indexes for Shirley's birth/marriage?

Shirley was the daughter of Winifred Bickell and Edmund Parker and possibly born in Bristol as all the Bickell family were born and lived in Bristol. Winifred Bickell was the sister of my grandmother and I have been trying to find out more about her husband and her daughter:-

1) When did Edmund Parker die and where?
2) What year Shirley was born - I think about 1942 or thereabouts and what was her married surname. She was married to a Tony and they lived in Bristol and she was a nurse. Shirley died about 10 years ago.

Would really appreciate some help here as despite searching have come up with no answers and my family cannot supply the info.

Many thanks
